Suppose 125 trout are seeded into a lake. Absent constraint, their population will grow by 40% a year. If the lake can sustain a maximum of 3500 trout, use a logistic growth model to estimate the number of trout after 4 years.

Explain how you can use the associative property to evaluate (7x50)x4.

Acaterer knows he will need 60, 50, 80, 40 and 50 dinner napkins on five successive evenings. he can purchase new napkins initially at 25 cents each, after which he can have dirty napkins laundered by a fast one-day laundry service (i.e., dirty napkins given at the end of the day will be ready for use the following day) at 15 cents each, or by a slow two-day service at 8 cents each or both. the caterer wants to know how many napkins he should purchase initially and how many dirty napkins should be laundered by fast and slow service on each of the days in order to minimize his total costs. formulate the caterer’s problem as a linear program as follows (you must state any assumptions you make): a. define all variables clearly. how many are there? b. write out the constraints that must be satisfied, briefly explaining each. (do not simplify.) write out the objective function to be minimized. (do not simplify.)

At a soccer tournament 1212 teams are wearing red shirts, 66 teams are wearing blue shirts, 44 teams are wearing orange shirts, and 22 teams are wearing white shirts. for every 22 teams at the tournament, there is 1 team wearing shirts. choose 1
