The work produced by a constant temperature, pressure - volume thermodynamic process can be computed as (picture 1)
where W is work, p is pressure, and V is volume. Use Simpson's rules to evaluate the work for the following data given in
TABLE picture.
Suppose that a given population can be divided into two parts: those who have a given disease and can infect others, and those who do not have it but are susceptible. Let x be the proportion of susceptible individuals and y the proportion of infectious individuals; then x + y = 1. Assume that the disease spreads by contact between sick and well members of the population and that the rate of spread dy/dt is proportional to the number of such contacts. Further, assume that members of both groups move about freely among each other, so the number of contacts is proportional to the product of x and y. Since x = 1 − y, we obtain the initial value problem
(22)
dydt=αy(1−y),y(0)=y0,where α is a positive proportionality factor, and y0 is the initial proportion of infectious individuals.

- Economists use Lorenz curves to illustrate the distribution of income in a country. A Lorenz curve, y = f(x), represents the actual income distribution in the country. In this model, x represents percents of families in the country from the poorest to the wealthiest and y represents percents of total income. The model y = x represents a country in which each family has the same income. The area between these two models, where 0 ≤ x ≤ 100, indicates a country’s “income inequality.” The table lists percents of income y for selected percents of families x in a country. (a) Use a graphing utility to find a quadratic model for the Lorenz curve. (b) Plot the data and graph the model. (c) Graph the model y = x. How does this model compare with the model in part (a)?
