Answer to Problem 1EA

Solution:

The estimated petroleum reserves would last if used at the same rate as in the base year over 88 years after 1970.

Explanation of Solution

Approach:

  1. Write equation for the rate of consumption of minerals at time t.
  2. Use the property of integration as,

kdt=kt+k and k is a real number.

Calculation:

The equation for the rate of consumption of minerals at time t is,

q=q0ekt.

Here q is the rate of consumption at time t, q0 is the rate of consumption at time t=0, and k is the growth rate constant.

The base year is 1970 thus it corresponds to t=0.

The consumption of petroleum in the base tear is 16,900millionbarrels.

The total consumption of petroleum is estimated as 1,500,000millionbarrels.

The total consumption of mineral to T years is,

Total Consumption=0Tq0ektdt.

Substitute q0=16900, k=0 and total consumption 1,500,000millionbarrels.

Total Consumption=0T16900ek(0)dt1,500,000=0T16900dt1,500,000=[16900t]0T1,500,000=16900TT=88.75T89years

Therefore, the estimated petroleum reserves would last if used at the same rate as in the base year over 89 years after 1970.
