    The net decrease in calories after walking 3 hours is 210 cal (if the Gatorade intake is discrete) or 765 cal (if the Gatorade intake is continuous)

    Explanation:

    The net decrease N in calories after 3 hours will be

    N=Net decrease = Decrease due to walking - Increase because of Gatorade

    = 300 - 80*t + 50*t = 300 - 30*t

    - if the Gatorade intake is discrete (1 gatorade each hour with 30 calories intake, so there is total intake of 30*t at time t), then for t = 3 hours

    Net decrease = 300 cal - 30 cal/hour * 3 hours = 300 cal - 90 cal = 210 cal

    Net decrease = 210 cal

    - if the Gatorade intake is continuous (continuously drinking Gatorade during the walk), then

    N = ∫ (300 - 30*t) dt = 300*t - 30*t²/2 (integrated between t and t=0)

    then for t=3 hours

    N = 300*3 - 30*3²/2 = 765 cal
