To explain : Why at some point during this feat the trireme’s speed exceeds 7.5 knots.

Answer to Problem 13E
The possible explanation is given below.
Explanation of Solution
Given information :
Classical count tells us that a 170-oar trireme once covered 184 sea miles in 24 h.
Calculation :
According to the mean value theorem, for the average slope in this case the speed for the whole function, there must be a point on the function that must be equals the average.
Also, the trireme covered 184 sea miles in 24 hours, so the average will be

- The spread of an infectious disease is often modeled using the following autonomous differential equation: dI - - BI(N − I) − MI, dt where I is the number of infected people, N is the total size of the population being modeled, ẞ is a constant determining the rate of transmission, and μ is the rate at which people recover from infection. Close a) (5 points) Suppose ẞ = 0.01, N = 1000, and µ = 2. Find all equilibria. b) (5 points) For the equilbria in part a), determine whether each is stable or unstable. c) (3 points) Suppose ƒ(I) = d. Draw a phase plot of f against I. (You can use Wolfram Alpha or Desmos to plot the function, or draw the dt function by hand.) Identify the equilibria as stable or unstable in the graph. d) (2 points) Explain the biological meaning of these equilibria being stable or unstable.arrow_forwardFind the indefinite integral.
