Answer:
about 15 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
You want to find t such that N(t)=200. Fill in the equation with that information and solve for t.
200 = 400/(1 +399e^(-0.4t))
1 +399e^(-0.4t) = 400/200 = 2 . . . . . multiply by (1+399e^(-0.4t))/200
399e^(-0.4t) = 1 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 1
e^(-0.4t) = 1/399 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 399
-0.4t = ln(1/399) . . . . . . . take the natural log
t = ln(399)/0.4 ≈ 14.972 . . . . . . . divide by -0.4, simplify
Rounded to tenths, it will take 15.0 hours for half the people to have heard the rumor.
