Chemistry: Barry makes a hypothesis that driving with his windows closed will increase his gas mileage. If the gas mileage does not change, what should Barry do next? A. Conclude that the gas additive has gone bad B. Assume that the hypothesis is not useful because it made a wrong prediction C. Change the results to show that the hypothesis is correct D. Repeat the experiment to confirm the result

Step-by-step explanation:

The differential equation for a exponential growth is:

$\frac{dn}{dt} = k\cdot n$

The formula is rearranged and integrated afterwards:

$\frac{dn}{n} = k \cdot dt$

$\int\limits_{n_{o}}^{n} {\frac{dn}{n} } = k\cdot \int\limits_{0}^{t}\, dt$

$\ln \frac{n}{n_{o}} = k\cdot t$

$\frac{n}{n_{o}} = e^{ k\cdot t}$

$n = n_{o}\cdot e^{k\cdot t}$

The exponential growth function can be used to find the montly growth function as follows:

$\ln 1.2 = k\cdot 12$

k = 0.015

The coeffcients of the expression are, respectively:

$n_{o} = 25$

k = 0.015

The exponential growth function with a monthly growth rate is:

$n(t) = 25\cdot e^{0.015\cdot t}$ , where t is measured in months.
