The rate, r, at which people get sick during an epidemic of the flu can be approximated by r = 1600te^(−0.5t), where r is measured in people/day and t is measured in days since the start of the epidemic.
(a) when are people getting sick the fastest?
(b) how many people get sick altogether? ,

a) t'(-3, 6) and v'(0, 3)  

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

the original amount doesn't ''re just looking for the time it takes for 1/2 of the substance to we have

(1/2) =)     take the ln   of both sides

ln (1/2)   = )   and we can write

ln(1/2) = ) lne     and lne   = 1     so we have

ln(1/2) = -.1092t     divide both sides by -.1092

t = ln(1/2)/-.1092 = about 6.347 days = about 6.3 days (rounded)
