From 2000 through 2009, the population of State A grew more slowly than that of State B. Models that represent the populations of the two states are given by P = 37.5t + 6075 State A P = 168.2t + 5138 State B where P is the population (in thousands) and t represents the year, with t = 0 corresponding to 2000. Use the models to estimate when the population of State B first exceeded the population of State A. (Round your answer to the nearest year.)
Please answer this question using the assumptions from the Solow Model In a country, the production function in terms of output per capita, y, and capital per labor, k, is y = k(12) The fraction of output saved, s, is 25% and the depreciation rate, δ, is 0.05. Assume that the population does not grow. What is the steady-state of capital per worker, k*, and output per worker, y*? What happens to the steady-state values if the population growth rate rises to 5%? By how much would the country have to increase its savings rate in b) in order to reach the same levels of steady-state values as in a)? Does the country’s growth rate increase in c) compared to a)? how?

The same disease is spreading through two populations, say Pi and P2, with the same size. You may assume that the spread of the disease is well described by the SIR model. dSa - BaSaIa dt dla - dt dRa YaIa dt with Sa(0) + I.(0) + R.(0) = N where N denotes the fixed population size. The subscript a identifies the population P or P2. For example, if a = 1, the variables are related to P1. Assume that S1 (0) = S2 (0) and I1(0) = I½(0) and that no interventions such as quarantine or vaccination have been implemented. If the difference in the spread of the disease is due only to the poor over-all health of a population, which population has the best over-all health of the two populations? - Susceptible Population 1 - Susceptible Population 2 700 600 500 400 300 200 100 10 15 20 t P1.

Hermann Ebbinghaus (1850–1909) pioneered the study of memory. A 2011 article in the Journal of Mathematical Psychology presents the mathematical model R(t) = a + b(1 + ct)−? for the Ebbinghaus forgetting curve, where R(t) is the fraction of memory retained t days after learning a task; a, b, and c are experimentally determined constants between 0 and 1; ? is a positive constant; and R(0) = 1. The constants depend on the type of task being learned. (a) What is the rate of change of retention t days after a task is learned?
