Suppose P(t)represents the population of a certain mosquito colony, where. t is measured in days. The current population of the colony is known to be 574 mosquitos; that is, P(0)=574. If P'(0)=50 mosquitos per day, estimate the size of the population in 10 days.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The estimated size of the population in 10 days is of 1372 mosquitos.

Step-by-step explanation:

Population after t days:

The population after t days is given by:

[tex]P(t) = P(0)e^{rt}[/tex]

In which P(0) is the initial population and r is the growth rate, as a decimal.

P(0)=574.

So

[tex]P(t) = 574e^{rt}[/tex]

P'(0)=50

[tex]P^{\prime}(t) = 574re^{rt}[/tex]

Since P'(0)=50

[tex]574r = 50[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{50}{574}[/tex]

[tex]r = 0.0871[/tex]

So

[tex]P(t) = 574e^{0.0871t}[/tex]

Estimate the size of the population in 10 days

This is P(10).

[tex]P(10) = 574e^{0.0871*10} = 1372[/tex]

The estimated size of the population in 10 days is of 1372 mosquitos.

Answer 2

The size of the population of mosquito follows an exponential model.

The size of the population in 10 days is 1370

The given parameters are:

[tex]\mathbf{P(0) = 574}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{P'(0) = 50}[/tex]

An exponential function is represented as:

[tex]\mathbf{P(t) = P(0) \times e^r^t}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{P(t) = 574 \times e^r^t}[/tex]

Differentiate

[tex]\mathbf{P'(t) = 574r}[/tex]

Substitute 0 for t

[tex]\mathbf{P'(0) = 574r}[/tex]

Substitute [tex]\mathbf{P'(0) = 50}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{50 = 574r}[/tex]

Divide both sides by 574

[tex]\mathbf{0.087 = r}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{r = 0.087 }[/tex]

The function becomes

[tex]\mathbf{P(t) = 574 \times e^r^t}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{P(t) = 574 \times e^{0.087t}}[/tex]

In 10 days, t = 10.

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{P(10) = 574 \times e^{0.087 \times 10}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{P(10) = 574 \times e^{0.87}}[/tex]

Solve

[tex]\mathbf{P(10) = 1370}[/tex]

Hence, the size of the population in 10 days is 1370

Christine Wong has asked Dave and Mike to help her move into a new apartment on Sunday morning. She has asked them both, in case one of them does not show up. From past experience, Christine knows that there is a 55% chance that Dave will not show up and a 45% chance that Mike will not show up. Dave and Mike do not know each other and their decisions can be assumed to be independent. a. What is the probability that both Dave and Mike will show up

Answers

Answer:

a) 26.79%, b) 50.42% and c) 22.79%

Step-by-step explanation:

a. What is the probability that both Dave and Mike will show up?

As decisions of showing up can be assumed to be independent, the probability will be given by

(1-0.53)(1-0.43)=(0.47)(0.57)=0.2679=26.79%

b. What is the probability that at least one of them will show up?

There are two possibilities for this to happen:

Dave shows up but Mike does not. The probability of Dave to show up is (1-0.53)=0.47 and the probability that Mike does not is 0.43. Then, as these events are independent, the probability for both of them to happen is (0.47)(0.43)=0.2021=20.21%

Mike shows up but Dave does not. The probability of Mike to show up is (1-0.43)=0.57 and the probability that Mike does not is 0.53. Then, as these events are independent, the probability for both of them to happen is (0.57)(0.53)=0.3021=30.21%

Therefore, the probability that at least one of them will show up? is 20.21%+30.21%=50.42%.

c. What is the probability that neither Dave nor Mike will show up?

As decisions of showing up can be assumed to be independent, the probability will be given by

(0.53)(0.43)=0.2279=22.79%

And we need to find the Solution of the linear equation . So let's Firstly number the equations .

[tex]\large{\red{\frak{ Given}}}\begin{cases} \sf x + y = 2\qquad ..........(i) \\\\\sf -3x + y = 2 \qquad ..........(ii) \\\end{cases}[/tex]

→ Multiplying equⁿ (i) by 3 ,

=> 3 ( x + y ) = 2*3

=> 3x + 3y = 6

→ Adding the two equations ,

=> 3x + 3y -3y + y = 6 + 2

=> 4y = 8

=> y = 8/4

=> y = 2

→ Put y = 2 in (i) ,

=> x + y = 2

=> x + 2 = 2

=> x = 2- 2

=> x = 0

p(x) ___ __ __ __ __
(c) What is the most likely value for X?
(d) What is the probability that at least two of the four selected have earthquake insurance? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

a)

P(X = 0) = 0.2840

P(X = 1) = 0.4201

P(X = 2) = 0.2331

P(X = 3) = 0.0575

P(X = 4) = 0.0053

c) The most likely value for X is 1.

d) 0.2959 = 29.59% probability that at least two of the four selected have earthquake insurance.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each homeowner, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are insured against earthquake damage, or they are not. Homeowners are independent. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

27% of all homeowners are insured against earthquake damage.

This means that [tex]p = 0.27[/tex]

Four homeowners are to be selected at random.

This means that [tex]n = 4[/tex]

(a) Find the probability distribution of X.

This is the probability of each outcome. So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{4,0}.(0.27)^{0}.(0.73)^{4} = 0.2840[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{4,1}.(0.27)^{1}.(0.73)^{3} = 0.4201[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{4,2}.(0.27)^{2}.(0.73)^{2} = 0.2331[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{4,3}.(0.27)^{3}.(0.73)^{1} = 0.0575[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 4) = C_{4,4}.(0.27)^{4}.(0.73)^{0} = 0.0053[/tex]

So the probability distribution is

P(X = 0) = 0.2840

P(X = 1) = 0.4201

P(X = 2) = 0.2331

P(X = 3) = 0.0575

P(X = 4) = 0.0053

(c) What is the most likely value for X?

P(X = 1) has the highest probability, so X = 1 is the most likely value.

(d) What is the probability that at least two of the four selected have earthquake insurance?

[tex]P(X \geq 2) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.2331 + 0.0575 + 0.0053 = 0.2959[/tex]

0.2959 = 29.59% probability that at least two of the four selected have earthquake insurance.
