A county landfill has a maximum capacity of about 121,000,000 tons of trash. The amount in the landfill on a given day since 1996 is modeled by the function T(x) = 64,000 + 2x. Here x is the number of days since January 1, 1996, and T(x) is measured in thousands of tons. After how many days will the landfill reach maximum capacity? Answer this question in two ways: (a) Graphically (by graphing the equation and estimating the time from the graph) WebAssign Plot T 140 000| 140 000| 120000 120000 100 000 100 000 80 000아 80 000 60 000 60 000 40 000 40000아 20 000 20 000 5000 10000 15 000 20 000 25 000 30 000 5000 10000 15 000 20 000 25 000 30 000 T 140000 | 140 000 120000 120000 100 000 100 000 80 000 80 000 60 000 60 000아 40 000 40 000 20 000 20 000
