Q. Consider the following problem:\newlineThe depth of the water in Harsha's bird bath is changing at a rate of r(t)=0.25t0.1 r(t)=0.25 t-0.1 millimeters per hour (where t t is the time in hours). At time t=0 t=0 , the depth of the water is 3535 millimeters. What is the depth of the water at t=3 t=3 hours?\newlineWhich expression can we use to solve the problem?\newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) 35+33r(t)dt 35+\int_{3}^{3} r(t) d t \newline(B) 35+34r(t)dt 35+\int_{3}^{4} r(t) d t \newline(C) 35+03r(t)dt 35+\int_{0}^{3} r(t) d t \newline(D) 35+23r(t)dt 35+\int_{2}^{3} r(t) d t
  1. Understand the problem: Understand the problem.\newlineWe are given a rate of change of the depth of water in a bird bath, r(t)=0.25t0.1r(t) = 0.25t - 0.1 millimeters per hour, and the initial depth at time t=0t=0, which is 3535 millimeters. We need to find the depth at t=3t=3 hours.
  2. Determine correct expression: Determine the correct expression to use.\newlineTo find the depth at t=3t=3 hours, we need to add the initial depth to the total change in depth from t=0t=0 to t=3t=3 hours. The change in depth is found by integrating the rate of change, r(t)r(t), from t=0t=0 to t=3t=3.
  3. Identify integral for change: Identify the correct integral to represent the change in depth.\newlineThe integral that represents the change in depth from t=0t=0 to t=3t=3 is 03r(t)dt\int_{0}^{3} r(t) \, dt. This will give us the total change in depth over the 33-hour period.
  4. Match correct integral: Match the correct integral with the given choices.\newlineThe correct integral from the choices is (C) 35+03r(t)dt35 + \int_{0}^{3} r(t) \, dt, because it starts at t=0t=0, which is when we have the initial depth, and goes to t=3t=3, which is the time we want to find the depth for.
