Two people with flu visit a campus. The number of days T it took for the flu viruses to infect n people is given by: T=-1.43Ln(10,000-n/4998n)
how many days will it take to infect 500 people?
:
Assume you mean:
T = -1.43 * ln%28%2810000-n%29%2F%284998%2An%29%29
:
Enter this into your calc:
T = -1.43 * ln%28%2810000-500%29%2F%284998%2A500%29%29
:
T = -1.43 * ln%28%289500%29%2F%282499000%29%29
:
Enter into your calc: -1.43 * ln%28%289500%29%2F%282499000%29%29
:
ans: 7.968 ~ 8 days
