4.6.06 (was 4.5.06) y = C e^(kt) thru (3,.5) and (4,5)

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

Using y = Ce^(kt) and the two ordered pairs.

y = Ce^(kt) Solve for k.

5 = .5 e^k(1)

you aren't given a value for C, and when y = 5 you have t = 4, not t = 1.

It's not clear that you used two simultaneous equations to solve for the two unknown parameters.

Mult by 2

10 = e^k

ln 10 = ln e^k Take the ln of each side

ln 10 = k

2.30 ~ k

y = Ce^(kt) Find C

5 = Ce^[(ln10)(4)] Divide by e^[(ln10)(4)]

(5) / e^[(ln10)(4)] = C Evaluate

0.125 ~ C

Answer: y = 0.125e^(2.3t)

Substituting the coordinates of the first and second points into the form y = C e^(k t) we obtain the equations

.5 = C e^(3*k)and

5 = Ce^(4k) .

Dividing the second equation by the first we get

5 / .5 = C e^(4k) / [ C e^(3k) ] or

10 = e^k so

k = 2.3, approx. (i.e., k = ln(10) )

Thus .5 = C e^(2.3 * 3)

.5 = C e^(6.9)

C = .5 / e^(6.9) = .0005, approx.

The model is thus close to y =.0005 e^(2.3 t). **

I used mixed coordinates...i understand what I did wrong.

4.6.10 (was 4.5.10) solve dy/dt = 5.2 y if y=18 when t=0

When k>0.....Exponential Growth

The details of the process:

dy/dt = 5.2y. Divide both sides by y to get

dy/y = 5.2 dt. This is the same as

(1/y)dy = 5.2dt. Integrate the left side with respect to y and the right with respect to t:

ln | y | = 5.2t +C. Therefore

e^(ln y) = e^(5.2 t + c) so

y = e^(5.2 t + c). This is the general function which satisfies dy/dt = 5.2 y.

Now e^(a+b) = e^a * e^b so

y = e^c e^(5.2 t). e^c can be any positive number so we say e^c = A, A > 0.

y = A e^(5.2 t). This is the general function which satisfies dy/dt = 5.2 y.

When t=0, y = 18 so

18 = A e^0. e^0 is 1 so

A = 18. The function is therefore

y = 18 e^(5.2 t). **

4.6.25 (was 4.5.25) init investment $750, rate 10.5%, find doubling time, 10-yr amt, 25-yr amt) New problem is init investment $1000, rate 12%.

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

10yrs: y = 1,000 e^((0.12)(10))

= $3,320.12

25 yrs: y = 1,000 e^((0.12)(25))

= $20,085.54

Doubled: 2,000 = 1,000 e^(0.12t)

2 = e^(0.12t)

ln 2 = 0.12t

(ln 2) / 0.12 = t

5.78 yrs = t

When rate = .105 we have

amt = 1000 e^(.105 t) and the equation for the doubling time is

750 e^(.105 t) = 2 * 750. Dividing both sides by 750 we get

e^(.105 t) = 2. Taking the natural log of both sides

.105t = ln(2) so that

t = ln(2) / .105 = 6.9 yrs approx.

after 10 years

amt = 750e^.105(10) = $2,143.24

after 25 yrs

amt = 7500 e^.105(25) = $10,353.43 *

THis is not what I got for # 25...I am not sure where yu're getting (0.105).

I answered #25.

The numbers in this solution appear not to match the numbers in the text problem. Your solution is correct for the problem you solved.

4.6.44 (was 4.5.42) demand fn p = C e^(kx) if when p=$5, x = 300 and when p=$4, x = 400

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

Find k.

p = Ce^(kt)

40 = 45e^(1000k)

8/9 = e(1000k)

[ln (8/9)] / 1000 = k

-0.000118 = k

Then...p = 45e^[(1000)(-0.000118)]

p = 39.99

You get 5 = C e^(300 k) and 4 = C e^(400 k).

If you divide the first equation by the second you get

5/4 = e^(300 k) / e^(400 k) so

5/4 = e^(-100 k) and

k = ln(5/4) / (-100) = -.0022 approx..

Then you can substitute into the first equation:

}

5 = C e^(300 k) so

C = 5 / e^(300 k) = 5 / [ e^(300 ln(5/4) / -100 ) ] = 5 / [ e^(-3 ln(5/4) ] .

This is easily evaluated on your calculator. You get C = 9.8, approx.

So the function is p = 9.8 e^(-.0022 t). **

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

Sorry I'm lost. I'm looking at #44...there's not 300 and/or 400 in the question.

I don't think this is the answer to Question #44.

There appears to be a disconect between the query and your text. Ordinarily I would be able to check that out and make corrections the next day; however I'm going to be out of town until Friday afternoon so won't be able to do it until then.

Please email me Friday for an update.

In any case your work looks good and I think you're in good shape with this material.
