Q8

While driving to Barrie, one of the tires on Moh's car picked up a nail. When he left his home, his tire was inflated to \displaystyle 240 \mathrm{kPa}  (kilopascals). The nail caused air to leak out of the tire at a rate of

\displaystyle 0.8 \mathrm{kPa}  per minute.

b) Use a graphing calculator to display the graph and the table of values for the equation from part a). Adjust the window settings to view a graph for 2 hours from the time of picking up the nail. Sketch the calculator display.

c) What will the tire pressure be 1 hour after picking up the nail?

d) If the air continues to leak at the same rate, how long would it take for the tire to become completely flat, that is, have no air left in it?
