Frogs have been breeding like flies at the Enormous State University (ESU) campus! Each year, the pledge class of the Epsilon Delta fraternity is instructed to tag all the frogs residing on the ESU campus. Two years ago (t = 0) they managed to tag all 42,000 of them (with little Epsilon Delta Fraternity tags). This year's pledge class discovered that all the tags had fallen off, and they wound up tagging a total of 63,000 frogs. (a) Find an exponential model for the frog population. f(t) = (b) Assuming exponential population growth, and that all this year's tags have fallen off, how many tags should Epsilon Delta order for next year's pledge class?

A person wants to earn the profit of $200,000 from his three goods next year. Product A gives him a profit of $100 and has an expected growth of 10% per year. Product B provides a profit of $200 and has an expected growth of 5% per year. Product C provides a profit of $150 and has an expected growth of 8% per year. The person plans to sell two times of product C as of product B. If the person estimated a total growth of 12% per year in his profits, how many of each product should the person sell in a year? the answer is A: 1931, B: 14, C: 28
3. In the following example, a cohort of six individuals was followed for 100 days after an outbreak of a viral infection in a hospital ward. The graph below shows how many days each subject remained in the study as a non-case (not infected). Those who completed the study as non-cases reached 100 days - the rest fell ill and did become cases. Since we know person-time is used to determine the amount of time at risk, calculate the total time contributed by all six subjects in this study.
