When the population is 40000, it is growing at a rate of 400 eels per year. At time ttt = 0= 0= 0,
the population is 10000.
(a) Write a differential equation whose solution is PPP (((ttt))).
Rate of change (P
′
) is (=) proportional to (k) size of population (P ) means P
′
= kP.
What’s the value of k? When P = 40000, we know P
′
= 400. That is, 400 = k · 40000, so k = .01.
Thus, we have P
′
(b) Solve your differential equation.
The general solution is P (t) = Ae
. 01 t
What’s the value of A? When t = 0, we know P = 10000. That is, 10000 = Ae
0
= A, so
Thus, we have P (t) = 10000e
. 01 t
(c) When will the population reach 60000?
60000 = 10000e
. 01 t
6 = e
. 01 t
ln 6 = ln e
. 01 t
Take ln of each side.
ln 6 =. 01 t Recall that ln e

t = 100 ln 6 ≈ 179 .176 years
Your budget is $288. If the glass for the sides costs $12 per square foot and the opaque
material for the bottom costs $3 per square foot, what dimensions will maximize the
volume? Be sure to show how you know you have found the maximum.

Goal : Maximize volume
Objective function: volume = V = x · x · y = x

y
We need to get this down to a function of just one variable, so we use the constraint equation:
total cost =(cost of base) + (cost of two square ends) + (cost of two other sides)
288 = 3 xy + 12 · 2 x
2
288 = 27xy + 24x
2
288 − 24 x

288 − 24 x

Substituting this back into the objective function gives
V = x

y = x

Now that we have V as a function of just one variable, we find its maximum.

x = 2 We discard x = −2 because lengths must be nonnegative.
Since V
′
is positive for x < 2 and negative for 2 < x, we know that the maximum occurs at x = 2.
And y =
288 − 24 x
