Part 1: Write an equation to model the following scenario. Recall the formula is y = a(1 +r)* A butterfly population increases by 30% each year, starting with 1200 in the first year Oy= 1200(0.30)* O y= 1200(1.30) • y =1.30(1200) Oy= 1200(30)
2. During the winter months in a particular city, snowfall occurs at the average rate of two inches per week. Melting and evaporation will reduce existing accumulation at the rate of three inches per week. In both cases, the time in days to increase or decrease an inch is negative exponentially distributed. That is, if no melting were to occur, the time until one more inch would fall would be negative exponentially distributed. Similarly, if there were no new snow, the time to decrease an inch would be exponential. Of course, both natural processes occur together. a. Develop a continuous time Markov model of the chang- ing depth of snow on the ground in inches. Provide a transition diagram or matrix and identify all parameters.
The variables and y have an exponential relationship, one of the form y = C. a. Suppose that we also have the following table of values for x and y: Point X Point 1 1.9 Point 2 4.9 4700 y 340 We'll use these two data points to solve for C and a. Step 1: Solving for a. a = If we divide the equation y2 Ca2 by the equation y₁ Use the values from the table to make an equation involving only a: = = a to the power (Round these and all answers to 2 significant digits.) Solve this equation for a: = C. Solve this equation for C: C = Y2 Ca¹, we get the equation = a Y1 = Step 2: Solving for C. Substitute the value of a you found into the equation y₁ = C. a¹ to get an equation involving only C: X2X1

Determine whether the following scenarios are linear or exponential. As summer approaches, I noticed that for every increase in 5 degrees, the number of people I see at the pool increases by about 3. The amount of Francium,a radioactive element, decays by about 3.1% every minute. The number of flu cases increases by about 1.6% per month during flu season.

An engineer designs a circuit, seen below. In this system, if the first component fails, the functionality moves immediately to the second component and so on. The system only fails when the fifth component fails. Each component has a lifetime that is exponentially distributed with λ = 0.01 and components fail independently of one another. Define A, to be the length of time component i lasts. Let Y = the time at which the new system fails. Given 2 لنا 5 A-Exponential (0.01) Y=A1+A2+A3+A4+A5 1. Find the probability that this new system will last fewer than 50 hours.
