Question
In one country the average consumer drank four servings of Coca-Cola in 1993. This amount appeared to be increasing exponentially with a doubling time of 2 years. Given a long-range market saturation estimate of 100 servings per year, find a logistic model for the consumption of Coca-Cola in this country where t is the number of years since 1993. (Round your numerical values to three decimal places.)
C(t) =
Use your model to predict in what year the average consumption reached 50 servings per year. (Round your answer to the nearest year.)

- 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 (use 4 significant digits for the r-value), and determine how long it will be before 100,000 people are infected. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)__________ weeksarrow_forwardThe table shows the yield (in bushels per acre) and the total production (in millions of bushels) for com in a country for selected years since 1950. Let x represent years since 1900. Find a logarithmic regression model (y = a +b In x) for the yield. Estimate the yield in 2023. The regression model is y=+Inx (Round to one decimal place as needed.)

- In 2013, the moose population in a park was measured to be 5,600. By 2017, the population was measured again to be 9,700. If the population continues to change exponentially, find an equation for the moose population, P, as a function of t, the years since 2013. Round numbers to 3 decimal places as needed. What does your model from above predict the moose population to be in 2022?arrow_forwardEach month, Uncle Joe’s Auto Parts uses exponential smoothing (with α = 0.25) to predict the number of barrels of brake fluid that will be sold during the next month.

- 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. 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 2003? 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)arrow_forwardThe yearly Chinese growth rate for population is increasing at about .35% per year.

In 1970, the DDT concentration was 13.59 ppm (parts per million). In 1985, the DDT concentration was 2.37 ppm. Part 1. Using these data points, determine the exponential decay function to model the DDT concentration decline in terms of years, tt, where t=0 represents the year 1970.
