Answer:

1 standard deviation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

IQs as measured by the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale are approximately Normal with:

Mean = 100

Standard deviation = 15

About 84% of people will have IQs below 115 because:

84% = 0.84

From z - table, 0.84 corresponds to a z- score of about 0.995

0.995 = 1. 00

The z-score gives the number of standard deviations by which a raw score is above or below the average or mean value.

Raw score = 115

Mean = 100

Standard deviation (sd) = 15

Mean + number of sd's

100 + 1(sd)

100 + 1(15) = 100 + 15 = 115

The use of mathematical methods to study the spread of contagious diseases goes back at least to some work by Daniel Bernoulli i

harina [27]

Answer:

a

$y(t) = y_o e^{\beta t}$

b

$x(t) = x_o e^{\frac{-\alpha y_o }{\beta }[e^{-\beta t} - 1] }$

c

$\lim_{t \to \infty} x(t) = x_oe^{\frac{-\alpha y_o}{\beta } }$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

$\frac{dy}{y} = -\beta dt$

Now integrating both sides

$ln y = \beta t + c$

Now taking the exponent of both sides

$y(t) = e^{\beta t + c}$

=> $y(t) = e^{\beta t} e^c$

Let $e^c = C$

So

$y(t) = C e^{\beta t}$

Now from the question we are told that

$y(0) = y_o$

Hence

$y(0) = y_o = Ce^{\beta * 0}$

=> $y_o = C$

So

$y(t) = y_o e^{\beta t}$

From the question we are told that

$\frac{dx}{dt} = -\alpha xy$

substituting for y

$\frac{dx}{dt} = - \alpha x(y_o e^{-\beta t })$

=> $\frac{dx}{x} = -\alpha y_oe^{-\beta t} dt$

Now integrating both sides

$lnx = \alpha \frac{y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta t} + c$

Now taking the exponent of both sides

$x(t) = e^{\alpha \frac{y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta t} + c}$

=> $x(t) = e^{\alpha \frac{y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta t} } e^c$

Let $e^c = A$

=> $x(t) =K e^{\alpha \frac{y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta t} }$

Now from the question we are told that

$x(0) = x_o$

So

$x(0)=x_o =K e^{\alpha \frac{y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta * 0} }$

=> $x_o = K e^{\frac {\alpha y_o }{\beta } }$

divide both side by $(K * x_o)$

=> $K = x_o e^{\frac {\alpha y_o }{\beta } }$

So

$x(t) =x_o e^{\frac {-\alpha y_o }{\beta } } * e^{\alpha \frac{y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta t} }$

=> $x(t)= x_o e^{\frac{-\alpha * y_o }{\beta} + \frac{\alpha y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta t} }$

=> $x(t) = x_o e^{\frac{\alpha y_o }{\beta }[e^{-\beta t} - 1] }$

Generally as t tends to infinity , $e^{- \beta t}$ tends to zero

so

$\lim_{t \to \infty} x(t) = x_oe^{\frac{-\alpha y_o}{\beta } }$
