Suppose that the growth rate of the population of city X is proportional to the population of X. We have the following data: the population in 1945 was 36,000 and the population in 1990 was 63,000. Establish and solve an Initial Value Problem to express the population of X as a function of time, graph this function and calculate an estimate of the population in the year 2040.

Water is boiled and is put to cool. The temperature of the air in the room is rising linearly in relation to the function T(t)=30+0.01t, where t is minutes and T is Celsius. Suppose this satisfies Newton's Law of Cooling: the change of temperature of the water is proportional to the difference of the water temperature and the room’s ambient temperature. We take the water's temperature 10 minutes after and find that it's 81*C. Graph and explain T. Establish and...

Consider the following initial value problem, in which an input of large amplitude and short duration has been idealized as a delta function. y′′−4y′=δ(t−4), y(0)=6, y′(0)=0. a. Find the Laplace transform of the solution. b. Obtain the solution y(t). c. Express the solution as a piecewise-defined function and think about what happens to the graph of the solution at t=4. y(t)= ___ if 0 (less than or equal to) t <4, AND ___ if 4 (less than or equal to)...

The following algorithm finds the initial substring of y that can be reversed and found in y. For example, longestInitialReverseSubstringLength(“aabaa”) = 5, because “aabaa” is the same string forwards and backwards, so the longest initial substring that can be reversed and found in the string is “aabaa”. Also, longestInitialReverseSubstringLength(“bbbbababbabbbbb”) is 6, because “babbbb” can be found in the string (see color-highlighted portions of the string), but no longer initial string exists reversed in any part of the string. longestInitialReverseSubstringLength(String y)...

Consider a 400-gallon capacity tank of water that contains 200 gallons of water in which 10 pounds of salt are dissolved. Suppose that water with a salt concentration of 2 pounds per gallon enters the tank at a rate of 6 gallons per minute, is well-stirred, and the mixture leaves the tank at 9 gallons per minute. Set up and solve the initial value problem to get the amount of salt as a function of time. Use this function to...
