During the period from 1790 to 1930, the US population P(t) (t in years) grew from 3.9 million to 123.2 million. Throughout this

period, P(t) remained close to the solution of the initial value problem.
(dP/dt)= 0.03135P – 0.0001489P^2 , P(0) = 3.9

(a) What 1930 population does this logistic equation predict?
(b) What limiting population does it predict?

Ps: I have answered this question and got a result, hence, I'm just checking my work, so please provide a detailed answer. THANKS!!!!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that during  the period from 1790 to 1930, the US population P(t) (t in years) grew from 3.9 million to 123.2 million. Throughout this period, P(t) remained close to the solution of the initial value problem.

\frac{dP}{dt} =0.03135P =0.0001489P^2, P(0) = 3.9

a) 1930 population is the population at time t = 40 years taking base year as 40

We can solve the differential equation using separation of variables

\frac{dP}{0.03135P – 0.0001489P^2 } =dt\\\frac{dP}{-P(0.03135 – 0.0001489P } =dt

Resolve into partial fractions

\frac{31.8979}{P} -\frac{0.00474}{0.0001489P-0.03135}

Integrate to get

ln P -0.00474/0.0001489  (ln (0.0001489P-0.03135) = t+C

ln P -31.833  (ln (0.0001489P-0.03135) =t+C

\frac{P}{( ( (0.0001489P-0.03135)^{31.833}  } =Ae^t

Limiting population would be infinity.

Samantha just opened a new restaurant. She earned $550 on the first day and $750 on the third day that she was open for business
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If Samantha's earnings continue to increase at the same rate, this means that her earning is increasing arithmetically.

If she earned $550 in the first day, we can say the first term is $550

If she earned $750 on the third day, we can say the third term is $750

For us to know by how much her money is increasing, we need to find the common difference d formed by the sequence

550, x , 750

T1 = 550

T2 = x

T3 = 750

Common difference d = T2-T1 = T3-T2

x - 550 = 750 - x = d

Let's calculate the second term first i.e x

Since x - 550 = 750 - x = d

x - 550 = 750 - x

Collect like terms

x+x = 750+550

2x = 1300

x = 1300/2

x = 650

d = T2-T1

d = x - T1

d = 650-550

d = 100

Hence her money keeps increasing by $100 each day

The area of parallelogram JKLM is 87.5 square feet. Its base is 14 feet. what is the height of parallelogram JKLM in feet?
Anna11 [10]
The height of parallelogram JKLM is 6.25 square feet. This is because the formula for the area of a parallelogram is base x height. So, since we have the base (14 feet), you simply divide the area (87.5 square feet) by the base, and get the final height (6.25 square feet. HOPE THIS HELPS!!!
