An advertising company designs a campaign to introduce a new product to a metropolitan area of population 3 Million people. Let

P(t) denote the number of people (in millions) who become aware of the product by time t. Suppose that P increases at a rate proportional to the number of people still unaware of the product. The company determines that no one was aware of the product at the beginning of the campaign, and that 50% of the people were aware of the product after 50 days of advertising. The number of people who become aware of the product at time t is:

Answer:

P(t)=3,000,000-3,000,000e^{0.0138t}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since P(t) increases at a rate proportional to the number of people still unaware of the product, we have

P'(t)=K(3,000,000-P(t))

Since no one was aware of the product at the beginning of the campaign and 50% of the people were aware of the product after 50 days of advertising

<em>P(0) = 0 and P(50) = 1,500,000 </em>

We have and ordinary differential equation of first order that we can write

P'(t)+KP(t)= 3,000,000K

The <em>integrating factor </em>is

e^{Kt}

Multiplying both sides of the equation by the integrating factor

e^{Kt}P'(t)+e^{Kt}KP(t)= e^{Kt}3,000,000*K

Hence

(e^{Kt}P(t))'=3,000,000Ke^{Kt}

Integrating both sides

e^{Kt}P(t)=3,000,000K \int e^{Kt}dt +C

e^{Kt}P(t)=3,000,000K(\frac{e^{Kt}}{K})+C

P(t)=3,000,000+Ce^{-Kt}

But P(0) = 0, so C = -3,000,000

and P(50) = 1,500,000

so

e^{-50K}=\frac{1}{2}\Rightarrow K=-\frac{log(0.5)}{50}=0.0138

And the equation that models the number of people (in millions) who become aware of the product by time t is

P(t)=3,000,000-3,000,000e^{0.0138t}

What is the sum 5/3 +(1/5) please and explain
solmaris [256]
We need to find a common denominator(bottom number of fraction)

5/3 = 25/15 (multiply both top and bottom by 5)
1/5 = 3/15 (multiply both top and bottom by 3)

Now since the denominator is the same we can add to get 25/15 + 3/15 = 28/15

Paco bought 3 CDs that cost d dollars each and a pack of gum for C cents. Write an expression for the total cost of his purchase
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

The correct option is A) 3d+C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Paco bought 3 CDs that cost d dollars each.

Let d is the cost of each CDs.

The cost of 3 CDs will be 3 times of d.

This can be written as:

3d

He bought a pack of gum for C cent. Thus, we can say that the cost of pack of gum is C.

Now add the cost of gum in above expression.

3d+C

Hence, the required expression is 3d+C.

Thus, the correct option is A) 3d+C.
