A study shows that if the government implemented energy conservation measures in 2009, the country's oil consumption in the next 5 years is expected to grow in accordance with the model R(t) = 20e0.054 where t is measured in years (t = 0 corresponding to the year 2009) and R(t) in millions of barrels per year. Without the measures, the expected rate of growth of oil consumption would be given by R (t) = 20e0.08e millions barrels per year. Determine how much oil would have been saved from 2009 to 2014 if the measures have been implemented.

Question
A study shows that if the government implemented energy conservation measures in 2009, the country's oil consumption in the next 5 years is expected to grow in accordance with the model R(t) = 20e0.05t where t is measured in years (t = 0 corresponding to the year 2009) and R(t) in millions of barrels per year. Without the measures, the expected rate of growth of oil consumption would be given by R(t) = 20e0.08e millions barrels per year. Determine how much oil would have been saved from 2009 to 2014 if the measures have been implemented.
