You can put this solution on YOUR website! The rate at which a flu epidemic spreads through a college campus is given by 0.000025x(5000 - x), where x is the number of people infected and the rate is the number of people that will be infected the next day.
a. Complete an inpute / output for x = 200, 400 600, and 800.
Rate(x)= 0.000025x(5000-x)
Rate(600)=0.000025(600)(5000-600)
Rate(600)=66
---------------------
b. What is the meaning of the output when x = 600?
If 600 are infected today, 666 will be infected tomorrow.
