A virus is believed to be spreading through a sheep farm according to that equation N = 450 (1/1 + 249e−0.1t ) where N is the number of sheep infected and t is the number of days. (i) How many sheep are infected at t = 0? (ii) Using a spreadsheet calculate the number of sheep infected after 0, 10, 30 , 50, 70, 100 days) (iii) Will all the sheep become infected eventually? Give reasons to support your answer.
