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)

The goal is to find a number between 0.125 and 0.18
1/5 is 0.2
0.2, 1.6, 0.09 are not in the range. Therefore, the square root of 0.02 (0.1414) is the answer.
