Chapter 1.1, Problem 19E
The rhinoceros is now extremely rare. Suppose enough game preserve land is set aside so that there is sufficient room for many more rhinoceros territories than there are rhinoceroses. Consequently, there will be no danger of overcrowding. However, if the population is too small, fertile adults have difficulty finding each other when it is time to mate. Write a differential equation that models the rhinoceros population based on these assumptions. (Note that there is more than one reasonable model that fits these assumptions.)

The rate of increase of COVID-19 infection is directly proportional to the number of people infected and to the number people not yet infected.
An isolated remote barangay of population 10,000 records its first case on June 15, 2020. After two days, 100 people are infected. Develop a model that predicts the number of COVID-19 cases in the barangay. How long will it take for 90% of the population to be infected?
Assume that the virus
persists in the person infected.

The SAT and ACT exams are often used to predict a student's first-term college grade point average (GPA). Different formulas are used for different colleges and majors. Suppose that a student is applying to a university with an intended major in civil engineering. Also suppose that for this college and this major, the following model is used to predict first term GPA.
GPA
=
a + b(ACT)
a
=
0.6
b
=
0.2
(a) In this context, what would be the appropriate interpretation of the value of a?
The value of a is the predicted ACT score of a student who has a 0 GPA.
There is not enough information to know how to interpret the value of a.
The value of a represents the change in predicted GPA associated with an increase of 1 in ACT score.
The value of a represents the change in predicted GPA associated with an decrease of 1 in ACT score.
The value of a is the predicted GPA of a student who scored a 0 on the ACT.
(b) In this context, what would be the…

(FEV1 stands for forced expiratory volume in one second.) Measurements were made on a group of children each year for two years. A linear model was fit to predict this year’s FEV1 as a function of last year’s FEV1 (in liters), the child’s gender (0 = Male, 1 = Female), the child’s height (in m), and the ambient atmospheric pressure (in mm). To try to improve the prediction of FEV1, additional independent variables are included in the model.

This pandemic is far trickier than anyone had predicted and has features that no single model has yet been able to pinpoint. Though the SIR Model (Susceptible-Infected-Removed) is the system of three differential equations that most Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) simulations start off with, we will consider a simpler variation of this more complex, nonlinear model (the SIR model is unsolvable with exact techniques). In our model, we assume the following: there are two compartments - a person is either susceptible or infected. We assume that those who are susceptible can become infected and we assume infected individuals can become susceptible again (once they are recovered from the disease). Define: -as + bi -as-bi where 8- proportion of the population susceptible…arrow_forward
- a) A maintenance staff member of the company has found that water tank is affected by some bacteria few days ago. Bacteria population grows at a rate proportional to the population. There were 100 bacteria 4 days ago and 1200 bacteria 1 day ago when the water samples were tested in a lab. i) ii) Form the differential equation according to the given scenario. Predict the expected number of bacteria by tomorrow. b) The R & D department of the company is testing whether radioactive materials can be used as fuels in future. The weight W of a certain radioactive material decays at a rate proportional to the weight. The half-life is 3000 seconds. The original weight is 35 grams. The scientists in the R & D department are interested in finding the weight of the radioactive material after t seconds.arrow_forwardThere are several extensions of linear regression that apply to exponential growth and power law models. We will outline some of these extensions. First of all, recall that a variable grows linearly over time if it adds a fixed increment during each equal time period. Exponential growth occurs when a variable is multiplied by a fixed number during each time period. This means that exponential growth increases by a fixed multiple or percentage of the previous amount. College algebra can be used to show that if a variable grows exponentially, then its logarithm grows linearly. The exponential growth model is y = αβx, where α and β are fixed constants to be estimated from data. How do we know when we are dealing with exponential growth, and how can we estimate α and β? Please read on. Populations of living things such as bacteria, locusts, fish, panda bears, and so on, tend to grow (or decline) exponentially. However, these populations can be restricted by outside limitations such as…arrow_forwardIt has been hypothesized that overall academic success for first-year college students as measured by grade point average (GPA) is a function of IQ scores = X1, and hours spent studying each week = X2.

- A college bookstore must order books two months before each semester starts. They believe that the number of books that will ultimately be sold for any particular course is related to the number of students registered for the course when the books are ordered. They would like to develop a linear regression equation to help plan how many books to order. From past records, the bookstore obtains the number of students registered, X, and the number of books actually sold for a course, Y, for 12 different semesters. These data are below. Show the complete table for your solutions. At a .01 level of significance is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the number of books sold is related to the number of registered students in a straight-line manner?

Filbert's friends finally decided to compare the effect of different aged grass compost on Jalapeno pepper plants. Because decomposition is necessary for release of nutrients, the group hypothesized that older grass compost would produce taller pepper plants.Three flats of pepper plants (25 plants/flat) were grown for 5 days. The plants were then fertilized as follows:Flat A: 450 g of three-month-old compostFlat B: 450 g of six-month-old compostFlat C: 0 g of compostThe plants received the same amount of sunlight and water each day. At the end of 30 days the group recorded the height of the plants (cm) and then threw a party featuring Jalapeno peppers stuffed with cream cheese!DV - IV -Control -…arrow_forwardA study tests the effect of earning a Master's degree on the salaries of professionals. Suppose that the salaries of the professionals (S,) are not dependent on any other variables. Let D, be a variable which takes the value 0 if an individual has not earned a Master's degree, and a value 1 if they have earned a Master's degree. What would be the regression model that the researcher wants to test? A. S,= Po + B,D,+u, i=1, .. , n. O B. S,= Po + B, + u, i= 1, .. , n. OC. 1=6o +B1,S, + u, i= 1, .. , n. O D. 0=Bo +B, S, + u,, i= 1, .. , n. Suppose that a random sample of 160 individuals suggests that professionals without a Master's degree earn an average salary of $59,000 per annum, while those with a Master's degree earn an average salary of $80,000 per annum. The OLS estimate of the coefficient B, will be $ and that of B, will be $ Click to select your answer(s). DELLarrow_forward
