Question 1096819: Can someone help me to finish this problem. Thanks for help.
The pressure of the oil in reservoir tends to drop with time. By taking sample pressure readings for a particular oil reservoir, petroleum engineers have found that the change ..... is given by the function P(t)=t^3-18t^2+81t where t is time in years from the date of the first reading.
a) Find P(0), P(3), P(5), P(10)
Over what period is the change(drop) in pressure decreasing; 3 to 10 or 3 to 9?
___________________________________
a) P(0)=0 right?
b) P(3)=3^-18*3^2+81*3
P(3)=90
c) P(5)=?
