Let g(t) give the total number of gallons of maple syrup sold by a local farmer over the first t
days after the start of the year.
We know that:
• Between day 0 and day 6 of the year, an average of 9 gallons of maple syrup were sold
per day.
• Eight days after the start of the year, the farmer will have sold 35 gallons of maple syrup.
• Between day 12 and day 13, the total gallons of maple syrup sold will increase by
approximately 3 gallons.
Q: If it takes approximately 0.2 days after the farmer sells their 45th gallon of maple syrup for
them to sell the 46th gallon, fill in the mathematical expression below with the correct input and
output values:

4. Micky starts a retirement account at age 32, putting away $250 each pay period, of which he has 24 per
year. However, as his salary increases, he finds he is able to increase contributions at a continuous rate of
4%, modeled by f()= 6000e04. If his savings grow at 7.6% continuously, find the amount of money
Micky will have at age 64.
Use the appropriate formula, set it up and evaluate with all work shown. Round to the nearest $1.
