Answer:

The prevalence rate of flu cases requiring hospitalization thus far in 2018 is:

= 0.13%

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Population of Portland, ME = 70,000

Number of flu cases requiring hospitalization on February 1st, 2018 = 43

Number of flu cases requiring hospitalization on July 4th, 2018 = 90

The prevalence rate of flu cases requiring hospitalization thus far in 2018 = 90/70,000 * 100 = 0.13%

b) The prevalence rate represents the proportion of the population of Portland, ME, who have the flu at the time that the Maine Public Health Department reported the number of flu cases requiring hospitalization on July 4th, 2018.

Find the duration
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Time : 9:00am to 10:15am 
Duration: 1hour 15 mins or 1.25hours

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find difference in distance travelled between the two cyclists.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Difference in speed = 6km/h
1 hour = 6 km
1.25 hours = 7.5km

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the distance the cyclist traveled
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
42.5 - 7.5 = 35km
35km ÷ 2 = 17.5km

The slower cyclist traveled 17.5 km in the 1.25 hours

17.5 + 7.5 = 25 km

The faster cyclist traveled 25km in the 1.25 hours

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the speed of the slower cyclist
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.25 hour = 17.5 km
1 hour = 17.25 ÷ 1.25
1 hour = 14km

The cyclist was traveling at 14km/h

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the speed of the faster cyclist
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.25 hour = 25km
1 hour = 25 ÷ 1.25
1hour = 20 km

The cyclist was traveling at 20km/hour

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The speed were 14km/h and 20 km/h
