Water Flea F. E Smith has reported on population growth of the water flea. In one experiment, he found that the time t, in days, required to reach a population of N is given by the relation e0.44t=NN0(228N0228N)4.46. Here N0 is the initial population size. If the initial population size is 50, how long is required for the population to grow to 125?
Consider the following rational functions: r(x)=x2x22x1 s(x)=x2+4x3+27 t(x)=x+2x39x u(x)=x225x2+x6 w(x)=x+3x3+6x+9x (a) Which of these rational functions has a horizontal asymptote? (b) Which of these functions has a slant asymptote? (c) Which Of these functions has no vertical asymptote? (d) Which Of these functions has a "hole"? (e) What are the asymptotes of the function r(x) ? (f) Graph y =u(x) , showing clearly any asymptote and x- and y intercepts the function may have. (g) Use long division to find a polynomial P that has the same end behavior as t. graph both P and t on the same screen to verify that they have the sane end behavior.
C of these fish caught by fishing over the life span of the fish is given by the catch equation C=FM+FN0 where F is the proportion of fish caught annually, M is the proportion of fish that die of natural causes annually, and N0 is the original number of fish F stocked in the lake. If we let x denotes the ratio FM, then the catch equation can be rewritten as C(x)=x1+xN0 Assume that a lake is stocked with 1000 channel catfish a. Write the catch equation for the lake stocked with channel catfish. b. What is the horizontal asymptote for the catch equation? c. Explain what the horizontal asymptote means in terms of the original 1000 fish. d. What is the vertical asymptote for the catch equation? Does the pole of the equation have any meaning in terms of the fish population?
