Question

In an election campaign, the popularity, B, as a percent of voters, of the governing Blue party can be modelled by a function of time, t, in days throughout the

campaign as B(t) = 40 - 0.5t. The popularity, R(t), of the opposing Red party can be modelled by a composite function of B(t),R(B(t)) = 20 + 0.75[40 – B(t)]. Graph B(t) and describe the trend.
