Robert manages a large farm and keeps his goats in two fenced areas. The number of goats in each of the two fenced areas can be modeled by the following functions, where t represents the number of months since Robert started managing the farm.

The functions are:

i) [tex]f(t)=0.3t+12[/tex]

ii) [tex]g(t)=0.1t^2-1.7t+15[/tex], where f and g is the number (approximate) of goats in fence area 1, and fence area 2.


After t months, the total number of goats is:

[tex]f(t)+g(t)=0.3t+12+0.1t^2-1.7t+15[/tex], which adding the like terms simplifies to 

[tex]f(t)+g(t)=0.1t^2-1.4t+27[/tex].



Thus, our function is [tex]h(t)=(t)+g(t)=0.1t^2-1.4t+27[/tex].


Answer: [tex]h(t)=0.1t^2-1.4t+27[/tex].
