Question

The logistical growth function f(t) = 77,000/1 + 1539.0e^-1.3t models the number of people who have become ill with a particular infection t weeks after its initial outbreak in a paticular community. What is the limiting size of the population that becomes ill?

Answer 1

77000; as t goes to infinity, 1539.0e^-1.3t goes to 0, and 77000/(1+0) = 77000
