Coal gas is produced at a gasworks. Pollutants in the gas are removed by scrubbers, which become less and less efficient as time goes on. The following measurements, made at the start of each month, show the rate at which pollutants are escaping (in tons/month) in the gas: Time (months) 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 Rate 5 7 9 14 22 31 40 A. Make an overestimate and an underestimate of the total quantity of pollutants that escape during the first month. overestimate

overestimate = 7

underestimate = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Table

Time (months)    0    1    2     3      4     5     6

Rate                   5   7     9    14    22    31    40

A. Make an overestimate and an underestimate of the total quantity of pollutants that escape during the first month.

Overestimate

For this case, we review the data in the table. The value for first month of total quantity of pollutants that escape is 7. Additionally, we can notice that the rate is increasing.

Just a month and that month has a value of  7

= 1* 7 (The largest value) = 7

Underestimate

This would be equivalent to the total until the previous meassure

= 1*5 = 5

pentagon

step-by-step explanation:

the coordinates   a(5, -2), b(3,-1),c(-4,-4) d(-3,8) and e(-1,4) forms the vertices of the polygon when they are connected in order.

in order to classify that which polygon is it with the given coordinates, first count the number of vertices and then count the number of sides it can make with these vertices.

since, the given coordinates have five vertices, therefore, it will make five sides. moreover, pentagon is regular in nature therefore it will be convex.

now, a polygon with five sides is known as pentagon, therefore, the given polygon is the pentagon.
