The population of the world was about 5.3 billion in 1990. Birth rates in the 1990s range from 35 to 40 million per year and dea

th rates range from 15 to 20 million per year. Let's assume that the carrying capacity for world population is 100 billion. Use the logistic model to predict the world population in the 2,450 year. Calculate your answer in billions to one decimal place. (Because the initial population is small compared to the carrying capacity, you can take k to be an estimate of the initial relative growth rate.)

Answer:

  24.1 billion

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to write the logistic function is ...

  P(t) = AB/(A +(B-A)e^(-kt))

where A is initial value (P(0)), and B is the carrying capacity (P(∞)). We are told to use relative population growth in the 1990s as the value for k.

In billions, we have ...

  A = 5.3

  B = 100

  k = 0.02/5.3 ≈ 0.003774 . . . . . relative growth rate at 20 M per year

  t = 2450 -1990 = 460

  P(t)=\dfrac{530}{5.3+94.7e^{-0.003774t}}\\\\P(460)=\dfrac{530}{5.3+94.7e^{-1.73604}}\approx \boxed{24.1\quad\text{billion}}

Help Review of linear pair vertical and complementary
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles form a straight line so they add to 180 degrees

3+6x   + 5x+12 = 180

Combine like terms

11x+15 = 180

Subtract 15 from each side

11x+15-15 =180-15

11x = 165

Divide by 11

11x/11 =165/11

x =15

!!please help!!<br>I have an F in this class and really need to get it up!​
lisov135 [29]

I may be wrong, I think I remember how to do this. A straight line has an angle of 180, so y would be 133, making the area 55571.63u. (u = whatever unit is measuring the circle.) If x = 1/20 of the area, then the red area = 2,778.5u or 2,779u. I hope this helps, but I honestly don't remember how I would find x, and I don't want you to get the question wrong.
