Sales of a video game released in the year 2000 took off at first, but then steadily slowed as time moved on. Table 4 shows the number of games sold, in thousands, from the years 20002010. a. Let x represent time in years starting with x=1 for the year 2000. Let y represent the number of games sold in thousands. Use logarithmic regression to fit a model to these data. b. If games continue to sell at this rate, how many games will sell in 2015? Round to the nearest thousand.

Logistic Population growth the table and scatter plot give the population of black flies in a closed laboratory container over an 18 day period. (a) Use the logistic command on your calculator to find a logistic model for these data. (b) Use the model to estimate the time when there were 400 flies in the container
Fruit Flies A study of the relation between the rate of reproduction in Drosophila fruit flies bred in bottles and the density of the mated population found that the number of imagoes sexually mature adults per mated female per day y can be approximated by logy=1.54-0.008x-0.658logx, Where x is the mean density of the mated population measured as flies per bottle over a 16-day period. Source: Elements of Mathematical Biology. a. Show that the above equation is equivalent to y=34.71.0186-xx-0.658. b. Using your answer from part a, find the number of imagoes per mated female per day when the density is i. 20 flies per bottle; ii. 40 flies per bottle. c. Using your answer from part a, find the rate of change in the number of imagoes per mated female per day with respect to the density when the density is, i. 20 flies per bottle; ii. 40 flies per bottle.
