Question

The demand for nurses between 2000 and 2015 is estimated to be
D(t)=0.0007t^2+0.0265t+2 (0<t<15)
where D(t) is measured in milions and t=0 corresponds to the year 2000. The supply of nurses over the same period is estimated to be 
S(t)=-.0014t^2+0.0326t+1.9 (0<t<15)
where S(t) is also in millions
a) Find the expression  G(t) giving the gap between the demand and supply of nurses over the period in question

First, you might have plug in 15 and 0 in the D(t) and find the difference

I think the gap is just the difference... I feel like you just need to do $D(t)-S(t)$. I guess there is more to the problem since this is just part a) o_O

yeah there is more to the problem but I am stuck on part a :( @kirbykirby

Hm well my instinct tells me you just subtract the demand and supply to find the gap, since it gives you the difference between the demand and supply.
