Consider a rabbit population​ P(t) satisfying the logistic equation StartFraction dP Over dt EndFraction equals aP minus bP squa

red ​, where Upper B equals aP is the time rate at which births occur and Upper D equals bP squared is the rate at which deaths occur. If the initial population is 220 rabbits and there are 9 births per month and 15 deaths per month occurring at time tequals​0, how many months does it take for​ P(t) to reach 110​% of the limiting population​ M?

Solution:

Given :

$\frac{dP}{dt}= aP-bP^2$         .............(1)

where, B = aP = birth rate

            D = $bP^2$  =  death rate

Now initial population at t = 0, we have

$P_0$ = 220 ,  $B_0$ = 9 ,  $D_0$ = 15

Now equation (1) can be written as :

$ \frac{dP}{dt}=P(a-bP)$

$\frac{dP}{dt}=bP(\frac{a}{b}-P)$    .................(2)

Now this equation is similar to the logistic differential equation which is ,

$\frac{dP}{dt}=kP(M-P)$

where M = limiting population / carrying capacity

This gives us M = a/b

Now we can find the value of a and b at t=0 and substitute for M

$a_0=\frac{B_0}{P_0}$    and     $b_0=\frac{D_0}{P_0^2}$

So, $M=\frac{B_0P_0}{D_0}$

          = $\frac{9 \times 220}{15}$

          = 132

Now from equation (2), we get the constants

k = b = $\frac{D_0}{P_0^2} = \frac{15}{220^2}$

        = $\frac{3}{9680}$

The population P(t) from logistic equation is calculated by :

$P(t)= \frac{MP_0}{P_0+(M-P_0)e^{-kMt}}$

$P(t)= \frac{132 \times 220}{220+(132-220)e^{-\frac{3}{9680} \times132t}}$

$P(t)= \frac{29040}{220-88e^{-\frac{396}{9680} t}}$

As per question, P(t) = 110% of M

$\frac{110}{100} \times 132= \frac{29040}{220-88e^{\frac{-396}{9680} t}}$

$ 220-88e^{\frac{-99}{2420} t}=200$

$ e^{\frac{-99}{2420} t}=\frac{5}{22}$

Now taking natural logs on both the sides we get

t = 36.216

Number of months = 36.216

Consider a parabola P that is congruent to y=x^2, opens upward, and has vertex (0,0). Find the equation of a new parabola that r
slega [8]

Answer:

  y = -(x+1)^2 +3

Step-by-step explanation:

Translating f(x) left by 1 unit replaces x with x+1.

Translating f(x) up by 3 units replaces f(x) with f(x)+3.

Reflecting f(x) over the x-axis replaces f(x) with -f(x).

__

When y = x^2 is reflected over the x-axis, it becomes ...

  y = -x^2

When y = -x^2 is translated 1 unit left, it becomes ...

  y = -(x +1)^2

When y = -(x+1)^2 is translated 3 units up, it becomes ...

  y = -(x +1)^2 +3

What is the interquartile range (IQR) of the following data set 17 16 21 15 25 22 18 23 17
Pepsi [2]

IQR = 6

First locate the median Q_{2} at the centre of the data arranged in ascending order. Then locate the lower and upper quartiles Q_{1} and Q_{3} located at the centre of the data to the left and right of the median.

Note that if any of the above are not whole values then they are the average of the values either side of the centre.

rearrange data in ascending order

15 16 ↓17 17 18 21 22 ↓23 25

                     ↑

Q_{2} = 18

Q_{1} = \frac{16+17}{2} = 16.5

Q_{3} = \frac{22+23}{2} = 22.5

IQR = Q_{3} - Q_{1} = 22.5 - 16.5 = 6

Line m passes through the points (2, -7) and (4, -9) line m is parallel to which line
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

The Answer is: The slope is -1, so any line with the same slope is parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points (2, -7) and (4, -9) find the slope, m:

m = y - y1 / (x - x1)

m = -7 - (-9)/(2 - 4)

m = -7 + 9/-2

m = 2/-2

m = -1

A parallel line is any line with the same slope which is -1.

Hope this helps! Have an Awesome day!!  :-)
