Question 858515: Every day 3% of an iceberg melts away in the North Atlantic. If an iceberg starts at 1000 tons, write an equation that represents how much of the iceberg will be left after t days.
A) A=1000-(3 X t)
B) A=1000(-0.03*t)
C) A=1000(1.03)*t
D) A=1000(0.97)*t Answer by Alan3354(69443) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! After each day, 97% is left from the previous day, = 0.97
