Answer:
B. y = 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Diane's average speed= 25/y km/h.
Ed's speed= (25/y) - 6 km/h.
Ed walks 25-3 = 22 km.
Consider Ed's journey:
Speed = distance / time so:
(25/y) - 6 = 22 / (y + 3) ( 3 hours longer = y + 3)
(25 /y - 6)(y + 3) = 22
25 + 75/y - 6y - 18 = 22
6y - 75/y = 25 - 18 - 22
6y - 75/y + 15 = 0
6y^2 + 15y - 75 = 0
2y^2 + 5y - 25 = 0
(2y - 5 )(y + 5) = 0
y = 2.5, -5.
y = 2.5 ( as it must be positive.
This is a separable differential equation, so can be solved as follows.
The question asks when the population will reach 101 rodents. That will be the solution to
It will take about 46.6 months for the rodent population to grow to 101.
The answer is 16
-16 is not greater than 12
2-3 feet would be a reasonable answer<span />
