  • 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...

The rate of growth dP/dt of a population of bacteria is proportional to the square root of t with a constant coefficient of 7, where P is the population size and t is the time in days (0≤t≤10). The initial size of the population is 600. Approximate the population after 7 days. Round the answer to the nearest integer.

Suppose a bacterial count satisfies logistic hypothesis. The initial count is 450 organisms/mL and the maximum count is 10000 organisms/mL. The count rises 18% in the first 12 hours. Establish and solve the Initial Value Problem to express the bacteria count as a function of time, graph this function and find when the bacteria count reaches 8000 organisms/mL.
