Problema Solution
A dengue outbreak is declared in a small town in Makati whose population is 7,000. Suppose that the rate of growth of the epidemic is jointly proportional to the number of people infected and the number of people who are not infected. Given that the epidemic is growing at the rate of 6 people per day when there are 10 people infected, how is dengue growing when 100 people are infected?
Answer provided by our tutors
as 6 per day when there are 10
thus % increase=6/10*100=60%
hence out of 100 the growth is 60 per day
