Question
A desalinization process is eliminating 20% of the salt from seawater every 10 minutes. There are initially 450 g of salt in 10 liters of water. Find an exponential function for A, the grams of salt in the 10 liters of seawater t minutes after the process has begun.
A= ?
Use the model to predict the amount of salt (in grams) in the seawater after 35 minutes. Round to the nearest whole number. Which is 206 g.
