Suppose a rumor is going around a group of 210 people. Initially, only 34 members of the group have heard the rumor, but 3 days later 69 people have heard it. Using a logistic growth model, how many people are expected to have heard the rumor after 6 days total have passed since it was initially spread? (Round your answer to the nearest whole person.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

116 people are expected to have heard the rumor after 6 days total have passed since it was initially spread.

Step-by-step explanation:

Logistic function:

The logistic function is given by:

[tex]P(t) = \frac{K}{1 + Ae^{-kt}}[/tex]

In which:

[tex]A = \frac{K - P(0)}{P(0)}[/tex]

Considering that K is the carrying capacity, k is the growth/decay rate and P(0) is the initial population.

Suppose a rumor is going around a group of 210 people.

This means that [tex]K = 210[/tex]

Initially, only 34 members of the group have heard the rumor:

This means that [tex]P(0) = 34[/tex] and:

[tex]A = \frac{210 - 34}{34} = 5.1765[/tex]

So

[tex]P(t) = \frac{210}{1 + 5.1765e^{-kt}}[/tex]

3 days later 69 people have heard it.

This means that [tex]P(3) = 69[/tex], and we use this to find k.

[tex]69 = \frac{210}{1 + 5.1765e^{-3k}}[/tex]

[tex]69 + 357.1785 e^{-3k} = 210[/tex]

[tex]357.1785 e^{-3k} = 141[/tex]

[tex]e^{-3k} = \frac{141}{357.1785}[/tex]

[tex]\ln{e^{-3k}} = \ln{\frac{141}{357.1785}}[/tex]

[tex]-3k = \ln{\frac{141}{357.1785}}[/tex]

[tex]k = -\frac{\ln{\frac{141}{357.1785}}}{3}[/tex]

[tex]k = 0.3098[/tex]

So

[tex]P(t) = \frac{210}{1 + 5.1765e^{-0.3098t}}[/tex]

How many people are expected to have heard the rumor after 6 days total have passed since it was initially spread?

This is P(6), so:

[tex]P(6) = \frac{210}{1 + 5.1765e^{-0.3098*6}} = 116[/tex]

116 people are expected to have heard the rumor after 6 days total have passed since it was initially spread.


Related Questions

A student majoring in accounting is trying to decide on the number of firms to which he should apply. Given his work experience and grades, he can expect to receive a job offer from 70% of the firms to which he applies. The student decides to apply to only four firms.
(a) What is the probability that he receives no job offer?
(b) How many job offers he expects to get?
(c) What is the probability that more than half of the firms he applied do not make him any offer?
(d) What assumptions do you need to make to find the probabilities? To increase the chance of securing more job offers, the student decides to apply to as many companies as possible, he sent out 60 applications to all different accounting firms.
(e) What is the probability of him securing more than 3 offers?

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.0081 = 0.81% probability that he receives no job offer

b) He expects to get 2.8 job offers.

c) 0.0837 = 8.37% probability that more than half of the firms he applied do not make him any offer.

d) Each job must be independent of other jobs. Additionaly, if [tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1-p) \geq 10[/tex], the normal approximation to the binomial distribution can be used.

e) 0.2401 = 24.01% probability of him securing more than 3 offers.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each application, there are only two possible outcomes. Either he gets an offer, or he does not. The probability of getting an offer for a job is independent of any other job, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used 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.

He can expect to receive a job offer from 70% of the firms to which he applies.

This means that [tex]p = 0.7[/tex]

The student decides to apply to only four firms.

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

(a) What is the probability that he receives no job offer?

This is [tex]P(X = 0)[/tex]. So

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{4,0}.(0.7)^{0}.(0.3)^{4} = 0.0081[/tex]

0.0081 = 0.81% probability that he receives no job offer.

(b) How many job offers he expects to get?

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

In this question:

[tex]E(X) = 4(0.7) = 2.8[/tex]

He expects to get 2.8 job offers.

(c) What is the probability that more than half of the firms he applied do not make him any offer?

Less than 2 offers, which is:

[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]

So

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{4,0}.(0.7)^{0}.(0.3)^{4} = 0.0081[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{4,1}.(0.7)^{1}.(0.3)^{3} = 0.0756[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.0081 + 0.0756 = 0.0837[/tex]

0.0837 = 8.37% probability that more than half of the firms he applied do not make him any offer.

(d) What assumptions do you need to make to find the probabilities? To increase the chance of securing more job offers, the student decides to apply to as many companies as possible, he sent out 60 applications to all different accounting firms.

Each job must be independent of other jobs. Additionaly, if [tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1-p) \geq 10[/tex], the normal approximation to the binomial distribution can be used.

(e) What is the probability of him securing more than 3 offers?

Between 4 and n, since n is 4, 4 offers, so:

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

[tex]P(X = 4) = C_{4,4}.(0.7)^{4}.(0.3)^{0} = 0.2401[/tex]

0.2401 = 24.01% probability of him securing more than 3 offers.

Answers

Answer:

68.3 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

tan I = opp side / adj side

tan I = sqrt(82) / sqrt(13)

tan I = sqrt(82/13)

Taking the inverse tan of each side

tan ^-1 ( tan I) = tan ^-1( sqrt(82/13))

I = 68.2892

Rounding to the nearest tenth

I = 68.3 degrees

Shaun is planting trees along his driveway, and he has 66 redwoods and 66 pine trees to plant in one row. What is the probability that he randomly plants the trees so that all 66 redwoods are next to each other and all 66 pine trees are next to each other

Answers

Answer:

0.0022 = 0.22% probability that he randomly plants the trees so that all 6 redwoods are next to each other and all 6 pine trees are next to each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

The trees are arranged, so the arrangements formula is used to solve this question. Also, a probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Arrangements formula:

The number of possible arrangements of n elements is given by:

[tex]A_n = n![/tex]

Desired outcomes:

Two cases:

6 redwoods(6! ways) then the 6 pine trees(6! ways)

6 pine trees(6! ways) then the 6 redwoods(6! ways)

So

[tex]D = 2*6!*6![/tex]

Total outcomes:

12 trees, so:

[tex]D = 12![/tex]

What is the probability that he randomly plants the trees so that all 6 redwoods are next to each other and all 6 pine trees are next to each other?

[tex]p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{2*6!*6!}{12!} = 0.0022[/tex]

0.0022 = 0.22% probability that he randomly plants the trees so that all 6 redwoods are next to each other and all 6 pine trees are next to each other.
