(b) During a nationwide program to immunize the population against a new strain of the flu, public health officials determined that the cost of inoculating x% of the susceptible population 1.85x would be approximately C(x) = -million dollars. 100 – x (1) What would it cost to providing immunization to the first 20% of the susceptible population? (ii) What would it cost to providing immunization to the next 30% of the susceptible population? (iii) Suppose 17 million dollars are available for providing immunization. What percentage of the susceptible population will not receive immunization? (iv) If money was not a problem will they be able to providing immunization to the entire susceptible population?

Even though housing prices have been declining in many parts of the country, in Lara's neighborhood, they have been increasing steadily since Lara bought her home in 2006. Lara purchased her home in 2006 for $140,000, and it steadily increased its value by $3400 a year. Let V represent the market value (in dollars) of her home; x, the length of time she has lived there (in years).
A certain species of deer is to be introduced into a forest, and wildlife experts estimate the population will grow to P(t)=(493)4 ^1/2, where t represents the number of years from the time of introduction. How long will it take for the population to reach 7888 deer, according to this model?
How did you apply the concept of maxima/minima in answering the problem? Angelo, who is in a rowboat 2 kilometers from a straight shoreline wishes to go back to his house, which is on the shoreline and 6 kilometers from the point on the shoreline nearest Angelo. If he can row at 6 kph and run at 10 kph, how should he proceed to get to his house in the least amount of time?
A small manufacturer has determined that the daily cost in dollars of producing n injected molded parts is given by the formula: C(n) = 0.01n3 - 1.5n2 + 0.25n + 500 Each part can be sold for $1.50 each. How many units must be produced and sold to maximize profit?
A house is purchased for $140,000 in January 2004. A year later, the house next door is sold for $149,800. The two houses are of the same style and size and are in similar condition, so they should have equal value.Use the model v = 140e0.0676586485t, where t is the number of years after January 2004 and v is the value in thousands of dollars, to predict when the house would be worth $290,000.
From 1975 to 2009, the age-adjusted incidence rate of invasive lung and bronchial cancer among women can be closely approximated by ƒ(t) = -0.038083t2 + 2.0899t + 24.262, where t is the number of years since 1975. Source: National Cancer Institute. Based on this model, in what year did the incidence rate reach a maximum? On what years was the rate increasing? Decreasing?
The farm population has declined dramatically in the years since World War II, and with that decline, rural school districts have been faced with consolidating in order to be economically efficient. One researcher studied data from the early 1960s on expenditures for high schools ranging from 150 to 2400 in enrollment.† He considered the cost per pupil as a function of the number of pupils enrolled in the high school, and he found the following approximate formula, where n is the number of pupils enrolled and C is the cost, in dollars, per pupil. C = 743 − 0.402n + 0.00012n2 (a) Make a graph of C versus n. (b) what enrollment size gives a minimum per-pupil cost? (c) if a high school student had an enrollment of 1000, how much in per-pupil cost would be saved by changing enrollment to the optimal size found in part (b)? round answer to two decimal places)
