The world health organization has studied the consumption of junk food in countries around the world since 2000. the function c = 179( 1.029 )^t models the amount of sods consumed in the world, where c is the amount consumed in billions of liters and t is the number of years since 2000.


approximately how much soda was being consumed when the study began in 2000?

Respuesta :

Answer:

  179 billion liters

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable t represents years since 2000, so in the year 2000 the value of t is zero.

When t=0, the exponential term is 1, so the value of the function is the multiplier of the exponential factor, 179.

__

Approximately 179 billion liters of soda was consumed in 2000.
