Modeling Human Height with a Logistic Function A male child is 21inches long at birth and grows to an adult height of 73inches. In this exercise, we make a logistic model of his height as a function of age. a. Use the given information to find K and b for the logistic model. b. Suppose he reaches 95 of his adult height at age 16. Use this information and that from part a to find r. Suggestion: You will need to use either the crossing-graphs method or some algebra involving the logarithm. c. Make a logistic model for his height H, in inches, as a function of his age t, in years. d. According to the logistic model, at what age is he growing the fastest? e. Is your answer to part d consistent with your knowledge of how humans grow?
Population The table shows the mid-year populations (in millions) of five countries in 2015 and the projected populations (in millions) for the year 2025. (a) Find the exponential growth or decay model y=aebt or y=aebt for the population of each country by letting t=15 correspond to 2015. Use the model to predict the population of each country in 2035. (b) You can see that the populations of the United States and the United Kingdom are growing at different rates. What constant in the equation y=aebt gives the growth rate? Discuss the relationship between the different growth rates and the magnitude of the constant.
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.

A Population of Foxes A breeding group of foxes is introduced into a protected are and exhibits logistic population growth. After t years, the number of foxes is given by N(t)=37.50.25+0.76t foxes. a. How many foxes were introduced into the protected area? b.
