First step: Factor the expression.
(x + 8) / (x - 6)(x + 4)
Set each factor of the denominator equal to zero.
x - 6 = 0                                        x + 4 = 0
add 6 to both sides                      subtract 4 from both sides
x = 6                                             x = -4
The function would be undefined if x = 6 or x = -4

In 1859, 24 rabbits were released into the wild in Australia, where they had no natural predators. Their population grew exponen
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

a) P' = P

   P(t) = 24e^{0.693t} where t is step of 6 months

b) 7.7 years

c)1064.67 rabbits/year

Step-by-step explanation:

The differential equation describing the population growth is

\frac{dP}{dt} = P

Where t is the range of 6 months, or half of a year.

P(t) would have the form of

P(t) = P_0e^{kt}

where P_0 = 24 is the initial population

After 6 month (t = 1), the population is doubled to 48

P(1) = 24e^k = 48

e^k = 2

k = ln(2) = 0.693

Therefore P(t) = 24e^{0.693t}

where t is step of 6 months

b. We can solve for t to get how long it takes to get to a population of 1,000,000:

24e^{0.693t} = 1000000

e^{0.693t} = 1000000 / 24 = 41667

0.693t = ln(41667) = 10.64

t = 10.64 / 0.693 = 15.35

So it would take 15.35 * 0.5 = 7.7 years to reach 1000000

c. P' = P_0ke^{kt}

We need to resolve for k if t is in the range of 1 year. In half of a year (t = 0.5), the population is 48

24e^{0.5k) = 48

0.5k = ln2 = 0.693

k = 1.386

Therefore, P' = 1.386*24e^{1.386t}

At the mid of the 3rd year, where t = 2.5, we can calculate P'

P' = 1.386*24e^{1.386*2.5} = 1064.67 rabbits/year
