In a city of half a million, there are initially 800 cases of a particularly virulent strain of flu. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta claims that the cumulative number of infections of this flu strain will increase by 40% per week if there are no limiting factors. Make a logistic model of the potential cumulative number of cases of flu as a function of weeks from initial outbreak, and determine how long it will be before 100,000 people are infected. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answers

Answer 1

Using the logistic equation, it is found that:

The model is:

[tex]P(t) = \frac{500000}{1 + 624e^{-0.4t}}[/tex]

It will take 10 days before 100,000 people are infected.

The logistic equation for a population is given by:

[tex]P(t) = \frac{K}{1 + Ae^{-kt}}[/tex]

[tex]A = \frac{K - P(0)}{P(0)}[/tex]

In which:

K is the carrying capacity. P(0) is the initial value. k is the growth rate, as a decimal.

In this problem:

Population of half a million, which is the carrying capacity, hence [tex]K = 50000[/tex].The strain increases by 40% per week, hence [tex]k = 0.4[/tex].Initially, there were 800 cases, hence [tex]P(0) = 800[/tex].

Then:

[tex]A = \frac{500000 - 800}{800} = 624[/tex]

[tex]P(t) = \frac{500000}{1 + 624e^{-0.4t}}[/tex]

The time until 100,000 people are infected is t for which P(t) = 100000, hence:

[tex]P(t) = \frac{500000}{1 + 624e^{-0.4t}}[/tex]

[tex]100000 = \frac{500000}{1 + 624e^{-0.4t}}[/tex]

[tex]0.1 = \frac{1}{1 + 624e^{-0.4t}}[/tex]

[tex]0.1 + 62.4e^{-0.4t} = 1[/tex]

[tex]62.4e^{-0.4t} = 0.9[/tex]

[tex]e^{-0.4t} = \frac{0.9}{62.4}[/tex]

[tex]\ln{e^{-0.4t}} = \ln{\frac{0.9}{62.4}}[/tex]

[tex]-0.4t = \ln{\frac{0.9}{62.4}}[/tex]

[tex]t = -\frac{\ln{\frac{0.9}{62.4}}}{0.4}[/tex]

[tex]t = 10.6[/tex]

It will take 10 days before 100,000 people are infected.

Step-by-step explanation:

(3u^2 - 5u + 4)

(7u^2 + 10u + 6)

Combine like terms!

3u^2 - 7u^2 = -4^2

Combine like terms

-5u - 10u = -15u

Combine like terms

4 - 6 = -2

The answer should be -4u^2 - 15u - 2

The solution to simplifying the algebraic expression is: -4u² - 15u - 2

How to solve Algebraic Expressions?

Algebraic expressions are defined as the idea of expressing numbers using letters or alphabets without specifying their actual values

The algebraic expression we want to simplify is:

3u² - 5u + 4 - (7u² + 10u + 6 )

Simplifying the bracket gives us:

3u² - 5u + 4 - 7u² - 10u - 6

Arranging like terms gives us:

Jerome makes and sells his own energy drinks. He mixes a liquid drink mix with water to create his own special blend. Jerome usually uses 8 cups of water and 3 cups of drink mix. Tomorrow, there is a road race in town, however, and Jerome thinks he’ll be able to sell a lot more of his energy drinks than usual. Jerome’s brother told him to add one cup of water for every one cup of drink mix he added to keep the ratio of water to drink mix the same and still increase the total amount of energy drink. Jerome’s sister told him to multiply both the amount of water and the amount of drink mix by the same number to keep the ratio the same and still increase the total amount of energy drink.

Answers

[tex]f(x) = -6x^2 + 7x + 4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

For x = 1

[tex]a(1)^2 + b(1) + c = 5 \Rightarrow a + b + c = 5[/tex] (1)

For x = -3,

[tex]a(-3)^2 + b(-3) + c = -71[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow 9a - 3b + c = -71[/tex] (2)

For x = 3,

[tex]a(3)^2 + b(3) + c = -29[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow 9a + 3b + c = -29[/tex] (3)

Let's add Eqn(2) and Eqn(3) together to eliminate b:

[tex]\Rightarrow 18a + 2c = -100[/tex] (4)

Next, multiply Eqn(1) by 3 and then add to Eqn(2) to get

[tex]\Rightarrow 12a + 4c = -56[/tex] (5)

Then we want to eliminate c by multiplying Eqn(4) by -2 and then adding to Eqn(5) and we will get

[tex]-24a = 144 \Rightarrow a = -6[/tex]

Now that we have the value for a, we can use either Eqn(4) or Eqn(5) to solve for c and we will get

[tex]12(-6) + 4c = -56 \Rightarrow c = 4[/tex]

Using the values of a and c on Eqn(1), we find that [tex]b = 7[/tex] so therefore, our function f(x) has a form

[tex]f(x) = -6x^2 + 7x + 4[/tex]

hen Max was a puppy, he weighed 512 pounds. At his 1-year check-up with the vet, Max weighed 15.8 pounds.

How much weight did Max gain between the time he was a puppy and his 1-year check-up?

Enter your answer as a decimal or simplified mixed number in the box.

Answers

Answer:

10.3lbs or 10 3/10 as a mixed number

Step-by-step explanation:

i have the same question on my test so i know this is right but here's an explanation: so 5 1/2 pounds is the same as 5.5 pounds, and if you add 10 pounds to 5.5 pounds, you get 15.5 pounds, which is 3 ounces away from 15.8 pounds. so adding 3 ounces to the 10 pounds, then adding that to the 5.5 pounds, you would get 15.8. therefore, your answer is 10.3lbs.

The puppy gained 10.3 pounds of weight in 1 year.

What is subtraction?

Subtraction is one of the arithmetical operations, to subtract means to take away from a group or a number of things.

Given that, Max was a puppy, he weighed [tex]5\frac{1}{2}[/tex] pounds. At his 1-year check-up with the vet, Max weighed 15.8 pounds.

[tex]5\frac{1}{2}[/tex] pounds = 5.5 pounds

Weight before 1 year = 5.5 pounds

Weight after 1 year = 15.8 pounds

Weight gained by the puppy in 1 year = 15.8-5.5 = 10.3 pounds

Hence, the puppy gained 10.3 pounds.
