In a city of half a million, there are initially 400 cases of a particularly virulent strain of flu. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta claims that the cumulative number of infections of this flu strain will increase by 40% per week if there are no limiting factors. Make a logistic model of the potential cumulative number of cases of flu as a function of weeks from initial outbreak, and determine how long it will be before 100,000 people are infected.

Contingency Table

A contingency table can be defined as the visual representation of the relationship between two or more categorical variables that can be evaluated and registered. It is a categorical version of the scatterplot, which is used to investigate the linear relationship between two variables. A contingency table is indeed a type of frequency distribution table that displays two variables at the same time.

Binomial Distribution

Binomial is an algebraic expression of the sum or the difference of two terms. Before knowing about binomial distribution, we must know about the binomial theorem.

Diseases tend to spread according to the exponential growth model. In the early days of AIDS, the growth factor (i.e. common ratio; growth multiplier) was around 2.0. In 1983, about 1900 people in the U.S. died of AIDS. If the trend had continued unchecked, how many people would have died from AIDS in 2007? people(Note: once diseases become widespread, they start to behave more like logistic growth, but don't worry about that for the purpose of this exercise)
The Environmental Protection Agency is concerned with the problem of setting criteria for the amounts of certain toxic chemicals to be allowed in freshwater lakes and rivers. A common measure of toxicity for any pollutant is the concentration of the pollutant that will kill half of the test species in a given amount of time (usually 96 hours for fish species). This measure is called LC50 (lethal concentration killing 50% of the test species). In many studies, the values contained in the natural logarithm of LC50 measurements are normally distributed, and, hence, the analysis is based on In(LC50) data. Suppose that n = 30 observations are to be taken on In(LC50) measurements and that o 0² = 1.7. Let S² denote the sample variance of the 30 measurements. (a) Find a number b such that P(S² ≤ b) = 0.975. (Round your answer to three decimal places.) b = (b) Find a number a such that P(a ≤ S²) = 0.975.

In many studies, the values contained in the natural logarithm of LC50 measurements are normally distributed, and, hence, the analysis is based on In(LC50) data. Studies of the effects of copper on a certain species of fish (say, species A) show the variance of In(LC50) measurements to be around 0.75 with concentration measurements in milligrams per liter. If n = 12 studies on LC50 for copper are to be completed, find the probability that the sample mean of In(LC50) will differ from the true population mean by no more than 0.5. (Round your answer…

Can someone help me create a linear, exponential, or polynomial equation that would model the progression of swine flu please. I have done some research and found that in 2009 when the pandemic started there were 60.8 million cases, which included 274,304 hospitalizations and 12,469 deaths in the US alone. Worldwide deaths were around 151,700-575,400 and 80% of these deaths were people younger than 65 years old
Diseases tend to spread according to the exponential growth model. In the early days of AIDS, the growth rate was around 190%. In 1983, about 1700 people in the U.S. died of AIDS. If the trend had continued unchecked, how many people would have died from AIDS in 2005?
Diseases tend to spread according to the exponential growth model. In the early days of AIDS, the growth factor (i.e. common ratio; growth multiplier) was around 1.9.

Section 2.2 (81) In the early stages of the deadly SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) epidemic in 2003, the number of cases was increasing by about 18% each day.

Find an exponential model that predicts the number of cases "t" days after March 17, 2003, and use it to estimate the number of cases on March 31, 2003. (The actual reported number of cases was .)
