The population P of a small town, measured in hundreds, is modeled by the inverse of the function Pāˆ’1(t) = 10ln(50t āˆ’ 1000), where t is measured in years. Find the equation to model the population and determine its initial value.

P = 5t +100 where P(0) = 100
P = 1/50 In(0.1t)+20
P = 1/500e^t + 20
P = 1/50e^0.1t + 20


Sagot :

Using the inverse function, it is found that the equation is:

[tex]P(t) = \frac{e^{0.1t}}{50} + 20[/tex]

It's initial value is 20.

---------------------------

We want to find the inverse of:

[tex]y = P^{-1}(t) = 10\ln{50t - 1000}[/tex]

To do this, we exchange y and t, and isolate y.

Then:

[tex]10\ln{50y - 1000} = t[/tex]

[tex]\ln{50y - 1000} = \frac{t}{10}[/tex]

[tex]e^{\ln{50y - 1000}} = e^{0.1t}[/tex]

[tex]50y - 1000 = e^{0.1t}[/tex]

[tex]50y = e^{0.1t} + 1000[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{e^{0.1t} + 1000}{50}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{e^{0.1t}}{50} + \frac{1000}{50}[/tex]

[tex]P(t) = \frac{e^{0.1t}}{50} + 20[/tex]

It's initial value is:

[tex]P(0) = \frac{e^{0.1(0)}}{50} + 20 = 0.02 + 20 = 20.02[/tex]

Rounding, 20.
