5) If the instantaneous rate of change of the population can be given by 50 t 2 − 100 t 3 2 (measured in individuals per year) and the initial population is 25,000 people, find a function to describe the population based on the number of years, t. What would be the population after 20 years?

1. Common rats (Rattus norvegicus) in tropical areas breed continuously throughout the whole year. The instantaneous annual rate of increase for this species can reach 6.02 (this is a very large value!). Starting with a population of 20 individuals, how many rats can we expect to see in six years if they always find enough food and space for all individuals? 2. Refer to the problem (1) and recalculate the population size after two years now that you found that...

A species of fish was added to a lake. The population size P (t) of this species can be modeled by the following exponential function, where t is the number of years from the time the species was added to the lake.P (t) =1000/(1+9e^0.42t) Find the initial population size of the species and the population size after 9 years. Round your answer to the nearest whole number as necessary. Initial population size is : Population size after 9 years is:

6. Then number of infected individuals in a population can be modeled with the following function: 20 I(t) = 10 − √ t, where t is measured in days. (a) Using linear approximation, estimate the number of in- fected individuals at time t = 18. You should linearize around the point t = 16. (b) Starting at t = 16, use linear approximation to estimate the number of newly infected individuals over the next 0.5 days.

Suppose that in a population of American adult coffee drinkers the change in heart rate ten minutes after drinking 6 ounces of coffee is normally distributed with a mean increase of 3.6 beats per minute and a standard deviation of 3.2 beats per minute. A negative change indicates a decrease in heart rate. What proportion of individuals in the population have a decrease in heart rate after drinking 6 ounces of coffee? The middle 80 percent of individuals have changes...

U(t)=6.859e0.153t million people gives the number of people using a ridesharing company, t years after 2011. Fill in the following blanks with the numerical answers, rounding to the hundredths place. DO NOT include units, the next problem will ask about units. The output of U(t) in 2015 is 12.65. This is just to make sure you have the function typed into your calculator correctly. The average rate of change of U(t) from 2013 to 2016 is? The percentage change of...

For the following exercises, consider this scenario: For each year t, the population of a forest of trees is represented by the function A(t) = 115(1.025)t. In a neighboring forest, the population of the same type of tree is represented by the function B(t) = 82(1.029)t. (Round answers to the nearest whole number.) Using MS-Excel, which forest’s population is growing at a faster rate? Which forest had a greater number of trees initially? By how many? Assuming the population growth...
