Answer:
The answer is shown below
Step-by-step explanation:
Let y(t) be the fraction of the population that has heard the rumor at time t and assume that the rate at which the rumor spreads is proportional to the product of the fraction y of the population that has heard the rumor and the fraction 1−y that has not yet heard the rumor.
a)
where k is the constant of proportionality, dy/dt = rate at which the rumor spreads
b)
At t = 2, y = 40% = 0.4
c) At y = 75% = 0.75
The number of variables in the problem is 3
Answer:
7 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the distance between the library and police station x. Then, the distance between the police station and fire station would be 3 less than twice x. Twice means multiply by 2 so twice x is 2 * x = 2x and 3 less than means that you subtract 3 so 3 less than 2x is 2x - 3. Now, we know that x = 5 so all we have to do now is substitute x = 5 into 2x - 3, therefore, the answer is 2 * 5 - 3 = 7 miles.
