Which of the following expression is correct regarding deoxygenation constant where symbols have their usual meaning?

(a) KDT = KD20  + (1.047)^T-20

(b) KDT = KD20 / (1.047)^T-20

(c) KDT = KD20 (1.047)^T-20

(d) KDT = KD20 (1.04^T)

I had been asked this question in semester exam.

My doubt stems from Population Equivalent and Relative Stability topic in chapter Wastewater Characteristics of Environmental Engineering

The correct choice is (c) KDT = KD20 (1.047)^T-20

To explain: KDT = KD20 (1.047)^T-20 where,  KDT is the deoxygenation constant at temperature ‘T’ and KD20 is the deoxygenation constant at 20^oC.
