The equation is separable, so solving it is trivial:

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}=ky\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dy}y=k\,\mathrm dt

Integrating both sides gives

\ln|y|=kt+C\implies y=e^{kt+C}=Ce^{kt}

Given y(0)=24 and y(1)=18, we find

24=C

18=Ce^k=24e^k\implies e^k=\dfrac34\implies k=ln\dfrac34

so the answer is E.

Answer:

E

Step-by-step explanation:

dy/dt = ky

1/y .dy = k .dt

ln(y) = kt + c

t = 0, y = 24

ln(24) = 0 + c

c = ln(24)

ln(y) = kt + ln(24)

t = 1, y = 18

ln(18) = k + ln(24)

k = ln(18) - ln(24)

k = ln(18/24) = ln(3/4)

67000 dollars is placed in an account with an annual interest rate of 8.25%. how much will be in the account after 28 years, to
anastassius [24]

Answer:

The Amount of money in the account after 28 years is $616,674.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The principal amount placed in the account = p = $67,000

The rate of interest = r = 8.25%

The time period of amount in the account = t = 28

Let the Amount of money in the account = $A

Now<u>, From Compound Interest method</u>

Amount = Principal × (1+\dfrac{\textrm rate}{100})^{\textrm time}

A = p × (1+\dfrac{\textrm r}{100})^{\textrm t}

Or, A = $67,000 × (1+\dfrac{\textrm 8.25}{100})^{\textrm 28}

Or, A = $67,000 × (1.0825)^{28}

Or, A = $67,000 × 9.2041

∴ A = $616,674.7

So, The Amount of money in the account = A = $616,674.5

Hence, The Amount of money in the account after 28 years is $616,674.5  Answer

andriy [413]

The correct format of the question is

At the end of 2006, the population of Riverside was 400 people. The population for this small town can be modeled by the equation below, where t represents the number of years since the end of 2006 and P represents the number of people. P = 400 ( 1.2 )^ t Based on this model, approximately what was the increase in the population of Riverside at the end of 2009 compared to the end of 2006?

(A) 291

(B) 691

(C) 1040

(D) 1440

Answer:

The increase in the population at the end of 2009 is 291 people

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation as P = 400 ( 1.2 )^ t

where

P = No of People

t= No of Years

it is given that in the year 2006 the population is 400

this will only happen when we take t= 0

so for

Year    value of t

2006-    t = 0

2007-    t  = 1

2008-    t = 2

2009     t = 3

No of people in 2009 will be

P = 400(1.2)^3

     = 400*1.728

   P  = 691.2

Since the equation represents no of people so it can't be in decimals, Therefore the population will be 691

Increase = P(2009) - P(2006)

               = 691 - 400

                = 291

The increase in the population at the end of 2009 is 291 people.
