A small military base housing 1,000 troops, each of whom is susceptible to a certain virus infection. Assuming that during the c

ourse of the epidemic the rate of change (with respect to time) of the number of infected troopers is jointly proportional to then number of troopers infected and the number of uninfected troopers. If at the initial outbreak, there was one trooper infected and 2 days later there were 5 troopers infected, express the number of infected troopers as a function of time.

Answer:

I=\frac{1000}{exp^{0,806725*t-0.6906755}+1}

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of infection is jointly proportional to the number of infected troopers and the number of non-infected ones. It can be expressed as follows:

\frac{dI}{dt}=a*I*(1000-I)

Rearranging and integrating

\frac{dI}{dt}=a*I*(1000-I)\\\\\frac{dI}{I*(1000-I)}=a*dt\\\\\int\frac{dI}{I*(1000-I)}=\int a*dt\\\\-\frac{ln(1000/I-1)}{1000}+C=a*t

At the initial breakout (t=0) there was one trooper infected (I=1)

-\frac{ln(1000/1-1)}{1000}+C=0\\\\-0,006906755+C=0\\\\C=0,006906755

In two days (t=2) there were 5 troopers infected

-\frac{ln(1000/5-1)}{1000}+0,006906755=a*2\\\\-0,005293305+0,006906755=2*a\\a = 0,00161345 / 2 = 0,000806725

Rearranging, we can model the number of infected troops (I) as

-\frac{ln(1000/I-1)}{1000}+0,006906755=0,000806725*t\\\\-\frac{ln(1000/I-1)}{1000}=0,000806725*t-0,006906755\\-ln(1000/I-1)=0,806725*t-0.6906755\\\\\frac{1000}{I}-1=exp^{0,806725*t-0.6906755}  \\\\\frac{1000}{I}=exp^{0,806725*t-0.6906755}+1\\\\I=\frac{1000}{exp^{0,806725*t-0.6906755}+1}

4.3 Mr Mokwebo 's two sons, Refentse and Tokelo have just passed grade 7 and grade 9 respectively. He will give them some money
Bumek [7]

The amount of money each of Mr Mokwebo 's two sons; Tokelo and Refentse will get is R116 and R95 respectively.

<h3>How to write and solve equation:</h3>

  • Amount needed to buy chocolate = R253
  • Tokelo's money = x
  • Refentse's money = x - 21

Total amount needed = Tokelo's money + Refentse's money

253 = x + (x - 21)

253 = x + x - 21

253 = 2x - 21

253 - 21 = 2x

232 = 2x

divide both sides by 2

x = 232/2

x = 116

Therefore,

Tokelo's money = x = R116

Refentse's money = x - 21

= 116 - 21

= R95

If you invest $4000 at 9% interest compounded annually, in how many years will you have $20,000. Give your answer the nearest te
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

18.7 years

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a compound interest problem and the following variables have been given;

Principal = 4000; this is the amount o be invested

APR = 9%; this is the compound interest to be earned

Accumulated amount = 20,000

We are required to determine the duration in years. We apply the compound interest formula;

A=P(1+r)^{n}

20000=4000(1+\frac{9}{100})^{n}\\20000=4000(1.09)^{n}\\5=(1.09)^{n}

The next step is to introduce natural logarithms in order to determine n;

ln5=nln(1.09)\\n=\frac{ln5}{ln(1.09)}\\n= 18.675

The number of years required is thus 18.7 years
