  1. \(C\) lies on the line that passes through \(A\) and \(B\),

Question 9

9 A water tank holds 2000 litres when full. A small hole in the base is gradually getting bigger so that each day a greater amount of water is lost.
  1. On the first day after filling, 10 litres of water are lost and this increases by 2 litres each day.
    (a) How many litres will be lost on the 30th day after filling?
    (b) The tank becomes empty during the \(n\)th day after filling. Find the value of \(n\).
  2. Assume instead that 10 litres of water are lost on the first day and that the amount of water lost increases by \(10 \%\) on each succeeding day. Find what percentage of the original 2000 litres is left in the tank at the end of the 30th day after filling.
