How many people became ill with the flu when the epidemic began? b. How many people were ill by the end of the fourth week? c, what is the limiting size of the population that becomes il? a. The number of people initially infected is (Round to the nearest number of people.)

Explanation / Answer

f(t) = 105,000 / (1 + 4500*e^(-t))

a)
at t =0,
f(0) = 105,000 / (1 + 4500*e^(-0))
f(0) = 105,000 / (1 + 4500*1)
f(0) = 105,000 / (4501)
f(0) = 23

Answer: 23

b)
at t =4,
f(0) = 105,000 / (1 + 4500*e^(-4))
f(0) = 105,000 / (1 + 4500*0.0183156)
f(0) = 105,000 / (83.42)
f(0) = 1259

Answer: 1259

c)
at t =infinity,
f(0) = 105,000 / (1 + 4500*e^(-inf))
f(0) = 105,000 / (1 + 4500*0)
f(0) = 105,000 / (1)
f(0) = 105,000

Answer: 105,000
