1. A population of a rare species of toad is being studied.
The number of toads, N, in the population, t years after the start of the study, is modelled
by the equation
900e0.12t
N= t  0, t ∈ 
2e0.12t + 1
According to this model,
(a) calculate the number of toads in the population at the start of the study,
(1)
(b) find the value of t when there are 420 toads in the population, giving your answer to
2 decimal places.
(4)
(c) Explain why, according to this model, the number of toads in the population can never
reach 500

4. The growth of a weed on the surface of a pond is being studied.
The surface area of the pond covered by the weed, A m2, is modelled by the equation
80 p e0.15t
A=
p e0.15t + 4
where p is a positive constant and t is the number of days after the start of the study.
Given that
• 30 m2 of the surface of the pond was covered by the weed at the start of the study
• 50 m2 of the surface of the pond was covered by the weed T days after the start of
the study
(a) show that p = 2.4

(2)
(b) find the value of T, giving your answer to one decimal place.
(Solutions relying entirely on graphical or numerical methods are not acceptable.)

(4)
The weed grows until it covers the surface of the pond.
(c) Find, according to the model, the maximum possible surface area of the pond.

Figure 4
Figure 4 is a graph showing the velocity of a sprinter during a 100 m race.
The sprinter’s velocity during the race, v m s–1, is modelled by the equation
v = 12 – e t – 10 – 12e–0.75t t0
where t seconds is the time after the sprinter begins to run.
(a) find, using calculus, the sprinter’s maximum velocity during the race.
(5)
Given that the sprinter runs 100 m in T seconds, such that

T
∫0 v dt = 100
(b) show that T is a solution of the equation
T=

(116 – 16e–0.75T + eT – 10 – e–10 )
12 (4)
Tn + 1 =
1
12
( 116 – 16e–0.75Tn + eTn – 10 – e–10 )
is used to find an approximate value for T
Using this iteration formula with T1 = 10
(c) find, to 4 decimal places,
(i) the value of T2
(ii) the time taken by the sprinter to run the race, according to the model.
