the consumption of natural gas by a company satisfies the empirical equation V= 1.5t + 0.008t^2 where V is in volume in millions of cubic feet and t is the time in months. rewrite the equation in unit of cubic meter nd seconds. put the proper units on the coefficients. assume a month is 30 days"

To rewrite the equation in units of cubic meters and seconds, we need to convert the volume from millions of cubic feet to cubic meters and the time from months to seconds.

1 cubic foot = 0.0283168 cubic meters (approximately)
1 million cubic feet = 0.0283168 * 1,000,000 cubic meters

Similarly, to convert months to seconds, we need to consider that there are 30 days in a month and 24 hours in a day, and 60 minutes in an hour, and 60 seconds in a minute.

1 month = 30 days * 24 hours * 60 minutes * 60 seconds

Now let's convert the equation:

V (in cubic meters) = 0.0283168 * V (in millions of cubic feet)
t (in seconds) = 30 days * 24 hours * 60 minutes * 60 seconds * t (in months)

Substituting these conversions into the original equation:

V (in cubic meters) = 0.0283168 * (1.5t + 0.008t^2)
t (in seconds) = 30 days * 24 hours * 60 minutes * 60 seconds * t (in months)

Therefore, the new equation in cubic meters and seconds will be:

V = 0.0424752t + 0.000226336t^2
where V is in cubic meters and t is in seconds.
