In Exercises, sketch the shifted exponential curves
y = 2x - 1 and y = 2-x - 1
Prove that the straight line y=3-2x intersects the exponential curve y=e^x at a point whose x-coordinate belongs to the interval (0,1).
Suppose a new magazine initially sells 600 copies per month. Research indicates that a vigorous advertising campaign could increase sales by 40% each month if our market were unlimited. But research also indicates that magazine sales in our area are unlikely to exceed 2400 per month. Make a logistic model of projected magazine sales.
a) N = 600 / 1+3e^-0.336t
b) N = 2400 / 1+3e^-0.336t
c) N = 40 / 1+3e^-0.336t
d) N = 2400 / 1+40e^-0.336t

The MacArthur-Wilson theory of biogeography† hypothesizes that some species from the mainland will migrate to the island but that increasing competition on the island will lead to species extinction. It further hypothesizes that both the rate of migration and the rate of extinction of species are exponential functions, and that an equilibrium occurs when the rate of extinction matches the rate of immigration. This equilibrium point is thought to be the point at which immigration and extinction stabilize. Suppose that, for a certain island near the mainland, the rate of immigration of new species is given by the following formula. I = 5.0 ✕ 0.93t species per year Also suppose that the rate of species extinction on the island is given by the following formula.
