Answer:
7.0422 is the correct answer to the given question .
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
R1 = 7.21 + 0.55t
R2 = 7.21 + 0.44t
Decrease in the revenue can be determined by the formula
[tex]= Reduction\ in\ R1\ -\ Reduction\ in\ R2[/tex]
[tex]= (7.21 + 0.55t ) - (7.21 + 0.44t)[/tex]
=0.11 t
Now overall Reduction can be determined by the interval from t=8 to t=15
Consider c=0.11 t
[tex]\frac{dc}{dt}[/tex]=0.11
Now integrated the equation from t=8 to t=15 to determine total reduction in revenue
[tex]=\int_{8}^{15}\sqrt{1+0.11^2}\ dL[/tex]
[tex]=7.0422[/tex]
