The population of a suburb grows at a rate proportional to the population. Suppose the population doubles in size from 3000 to 6

000 in a 6- month period and continues at the current rate of growth. Find the particular solution to the differential equation with the initial condition P(0)=3000.

Answer:

P(t) = 3000e^{0.1155t}

Step-by-step explanation:

The growth of the population can be modeled by the following differential equation:

\frac{dP}{dt} = rP

Where r is the growth rate, P is the population, and t is the time measures in months.

I am going to solve the above differential equation with the separation of variables method.

\frac{dP}{P} = rdt

Integrating both sides:

ln P = rt + P(0)

Where P(0) is the initial condition

We need to isolate P in this equation, so we do this

e^{ln P} = e^{rt + P(0)}

So

P(t) = P(0)e^{rt}

The problem states that P(0)=3000, so:

P(t) = 3000e^{rt}

The problem wants us to find the value of r:

It states that the population doubles in size from 3000 to 6000 in a 6- month period, meaning that P(6) = 6000. So

6000 = 3000e^{6r}

e^{6r} = 2

To isolate 6r, we apply ln to both sides.

ln (e^{6r}) = ln 2

6r = 0.693

r = \frac{0.693}{6}

r = 0.1155

The particular solution to the differential equation with the initial condition P(0)=3000 is:

P(t) = 3000e^{0.1155t}

the 2 angles are congruent so...

x+40=3x    set the 2 equations equal to each other

40=2x      subtract x from both sides

20=x     divide by 2

x=20 is the final answer

If you vertically compress the absolute value parent function, F(x) = |x|, by
marshall27 [118]

The current function equation is  Y=1/3|x|

---------------------------

The meaning relative f(x) = is the absolute value and is weighted by a factor 3 vertically.

If a constant (say a) multiplies the function, the parent will be extended vertically.

We have below vertical extension and compression conditions.

A > 1 = > spread vertically

0 < < 1 = > compression vertically

Therefore we will subtract the entire feature by 1/3 for vertical compression by a factor of 3.

The equation for the current function is then Y=1/3|x|
