What is the symbol for scale factor?

1 answer:

3 0

A scale factor is a number which scales, or multiplies, some quantity. In the equation y = Cx, C is the scale factor for x. C is also the coefficient of x, and may be called the constant of proportionality of y to x.

Answer:

(a) 100 fishes

(b) t = 10: 483 fishes

t = 20: 999 fishes

t = 30: 1168 fishes

(c)

$P(\infty) = 1200$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$P(t) =\frac{d}{1+ke^-{ct}}$

$d = 1200\\k = 11\\c=0.2$

Solving (a): Fishes at t = 0

This gives:

$P(0) =\frac{1200}{1+11*e^-{0.2*0}}$

$P(0) =\frac{1200}{1+11*e^-{0}}$

$P(0) =\frac{1200}{1+11*1}$

$P(0) =\frac{1200}{1+11}$

$P(0) =\frac{1200}{12}$

$P(0) = 100$

Solving (a): Fishes at t = 10, 20, 30

$t = 10$

$P(10) =\frac{1200}{1+11*e^-{0.2*10}} =\frac{1200}{1+11*e^-{2}}\\\\P(10) =\frac{1200}{1+11*0.135}=\frac{1200}{2.485}\\\\P(10) =483$

$t = 20$

$P(20) =\frac{1200}{1+11*e^-{0.2*20}} =\frac{1200}{1+11*e^-{4}}\\\\P(20) =\frac{1200}{1+11*0.0183}=\frac{1200}{1.2013}\\\\P(20) =999$

$t = 30$

$P(30) =\frac{1200}{1+11*e^-{0.2*30}} =\frac{1200}{1+11*e^-{6}}\\\\P(30) =\frac{1200}{1+11*0.00247}=\frac{1200}{1.0273}\\\\P(30) =1168$

Solving (c): $\lim_{t \to \infty} P(t)$

In (b) above.

Notice that as t increases from 10 to 20 to 30, the values of $e^{-ct}$ decreases

This implies that:

${t \to \infty} = {e^{-ct} \to 0}$

So:

The value of P(t) for large values is:

$P(\infty) = \frac{1200}{1 + 11 * 0}$

$P(\infty) = \frac{1200}{1 + 0}$

$P(\infty) = \frac{1200}{1}$

$P(\infty) = 1200$
