The population of a community is known to increase at a rate proportional to the number of people present at time t. The initial

population P0 has doubled in 5 years. Suppose it is known that the population is 9,000 after 3 years. What was the initial population P0? (Round your answer to one decimal place.) P0 = 5937.8 What will be the population in 10 years? (Round your answer to the nearest person.) 23751 persons How fast is the population growing at t = 10? (Round your answer to the nearest person.) 3293 persons/year

Answer:

P0 = 5937.8 people

P(t = 10) = 23751 people

P'(t = 10) = 3293 persons/year

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the population has the formula of

P = P_0e^{kt}

Where P0 is the initial population at t = 0 and k is the constant that we are looking fore.

Since the population doubled after t = 5 years

P = 2P_0

2P_0 = P_0e^{k5}

e^{5k} = 2

k = ln2/5 = 0.1386

So after t = 3 years, population is P = 9000:

9000 = P_0e^{0.1386*3}

P_0 = \frac{9000}{e^{0.1386*3}} = 5937.8

After 10 years, population would be quadtripled (10 years is 2 times of 5 years):

P(10) = 4P_0 = 5937.8*4 = 23751

The rate of change in population is the derivative of the population function with respect to t

P'(t) = P_0ke^{kt} = 5937.8*0.1386e^{0.1386t} = 823.15 e^{0.1386t}

So after t = 10 years the rate of change in population would be

P'(10) = 823.15 e^{0.1386*10} = 3293 persons/years

The number of btus which are needed to cool Lucia’s apartment shown in the three-dimensional model are 20,400 btus.

<h3>What is of volume of rectangular prism?</h3>

Volume of rectangular prism is the amount of quantity, which is obtained in it in the 3 dimensional space.

Volume of a rectangular prism is the product of its width, height and length.

V=w\times h\times l

Here, (w) is the width of the base (l) is the length and (h) is the height of the rectangular prism.

A three-dimensional model of Lucia’s apartment is shown. The image is attached below for the apartment. The three section are there in the apartment. The volume of this apartment is,

V=[(20\times12)+(20-9)\times16+(20\times20)]\times10\\V=8160\rm\; ft^3

To cool the whole apartment, an air conditioner must provide 2.5 btus per cubic foot. To cool, the 8160 cubic foot apartment the btus needed are,

n=8160\times2.5\\n=20400\rm\; btus

Hence, the number of btus which are needed to cool Lucia’s apartment shown in the three-dimensional model are 20,400 btus.
