The price of crude oil during the period 2000-2010 can be approximated by P(t) = 6t + 18 dollars per barrel (0 ≤ t ≤ 10) in year t, where t = 0 represents 2000. Saudi Arabia's crude oil production over the same period can be approximated by Q(t) = −0.036t2 + 0.62t + 8 million barrels per day (0 ≤ t ≤ 10). † Use these models to estimate Saudi Arabia's daily oil revenue and also its rate of change in 2006.

Answer:

Part a: Saudi Arabia's daily oil revenue = $568.896

Part b: Rate of change in 2006 = 74.42%

Explanation:

Part a: Saudi Arabia's daily oil revenue:

Where t = 0, represents year 2000

2006 = t6

P(t) = 6t + 18 dollars per barrel (0 ≤ t ≤ 10)

Price for 2006:

Price in 2006 P(6) = 6(6) + 18 dollars per barrel (0 ≤ t ≤ 10)

Price in 2006 = 36 + 18 dollars per barrel (0 ≤ t ≤ 10)

Price in 2006 = $54 dollars per barrel (0 ≤ t ≤ 10)-------------(A)

Now we need to determine the quantity for 2006 to find the revenue:

Q(t) = −0.036t² + 0.62t + 8 million barrels per day (0 ≤ t ≤ 10)

Quantity for 2006 Q(6) = -0.036(6)² + 0.62(6) + 8 million barrels per day (0 ≤ t ≤ 10)

Q(6) = -1.2960 + 3.72 + 8 = 10.4240 barrels per day (0 ≤ t ≤ 10)--------(B)

To find daily oil revenue, we need to multiply the price of barrel to the quantity per day

Revenue in 2006 = A×B

Revenue in 2006 = $54 × 10.42.40

Revenue in 2006 = $562.896

Part b: Rate of change in 2006:

For this we need to compare the revenue in 2000 with 2006:

Price in 2000, where t=0

P(t) = 6t + 18 dollars per barrel (0 ≤ t ≤ 10)

P(0) = 6(0) + 18 dollars per barrel (0 ≤ t ≤ 10)

P(0) = $18 per barrel (0 ≤ t ≤ 10)

Price in 2000 = $18 per barrel (0 ≤ t ≤ 10)------- (C)

Quantity in 2000:

Q(t) =−0.036t² + 0.62t + 8 million barrels per day (0 ≤ t ≤ 10).

Q(0) = -0.036 (0)²+0.62(0) + 8 million barrels per day (0 ≤ t ≤ 10).

Q(0) = 8 million barrels per day (0 ≤ t ≤ 10).

Quantity in 2000 = 8 million barrels per day (0 ≤ t ≤ 10).------- (D)

Revenue in 2000 = Price in 2000 × Quantity in 2000

Revenue in 2000 = $18 × 8

Revenue in 2000 = $144

Rate of change = Revenue in 2006 - Revenue in 2000  

Rate of change = $562.896 - $144

Rate of change = $418.896

Rate of change in percentage = (418.896/562.896)×100

Rate of change in percentage = 74.42%
