The projected public spending by the British government for the years 2010-2011 through 2014-2015 is 692 billion pounds/year. The projected public revenue for the same period is billion pounds . Find the projected deficit for the period in question. (Round your answer to one decimal place.)
The spending is 692 billion pounds over the time period t = 0 through t = 4.
The revenue over the time period t = 0 through t = 4 is given by
