question:A group of parents who have raised athletes formed a support network. They help other parents by providing emotional support and sharing their experiences. As part of their support activities, they decided to analyze and optimize the training schedules of young athletes to prevent burnout and maximize performance.1. The parents track the training intensity and emotional well-being of 20 athletes over a period of 12 weeks. The training intensity ( I(t) ) is measured on a scale of 1 to 10, and the emotional well-being ( W(t) ) is measured on a scale of 0 to 100, where ( t ) is the week number. The relationship between training intensity and emotional well-being for each athlete is given by the differential equation:[ frac{dW}{dt} = -aI(t) + b ]where ( a ) and ( b ) are constants. Suppose for one particular athlete, ( I(t) = 3 + 2 sin(frac{pi t}{6}) ), ( W(0) = 80 ), ( a = 0.5 ), and ( b = 10 ). Find the expression for ( W(t) ) over the 12-week period.2. The parents also want to balance the total training intensity and emotional well-being of all 20 athletes to ensure that the average well-being does not fall below 60 at any point. Given the relationship in part 1 and knowing that the initial conditions and parameters ( a ) and ( b ) are the same for all athletes, determine the average training intensity ( bar{I}(t) ) that the parents should aim for if the average initial well-being ( bar{W}(0) ) is 75.

answer:To solve this problem, we will proceed step-by-step as follows: Part 1: Find the expression for ( W(t) )Given the differential equation:[ frac{dW}{dt} = -aI(t) + b ]For the specific athlete, we have:[ I(t) = 3 + 2 sinleft(frac{pi t}{6}right), ][ a = 0.5, ][ b = 10, ][ W(0) = 80. ]Substitute ( I(t) ) into the differential equation:[ frac{dW}{dt} = -0.5 left(3 + 2 sinleft(frac{pi t}{6}right)right) + 10. ]Simplify the equation:[ frac{dW}{dt} = -1.5 - 1 sinleft(frac{pi t}{6}right) + 10, ][ frac{dW}{dt} = 8.5 - sinleft(frac{pi t}{6}right). ]This is a first-order linear differential equation. To solve it, we first find the integrating factor ( mu(t) ):[ mu(t) = e^{int 0 , dt} = e^0 = 1. ]Thus, we can rewrite the differential equation as:[ frac{dW}{dt} = 8.5 - sinleft(frac{pi t}{6}right). ]Integrate both sides with respect to ( t ):[ W(t) = int (8.5 - sinleft(frac{pi t}{6}right)) , dt. ]Split the integral:[ W(t) = int 8.5 , dt - int sinleft(frac{pi t}{6}right) , dt. ]Integrate each term:[ int 8.5 , dt = 8.5t, ][ int sinleft(frac{pi t}{6}right) , dt = -frac{6}{pi} cosleft(frac{pi t}{6}right). ]So we have:[ W(t) = 8.5t + frac{6}{pi} cosleft(frac{pi t}{6}right) + C. ]Use the initial condition ( W(0) = 80 ) to find ( C ):[ 80 = 8.5(0) + frac{6}{pi} cos(0) + C, ][ 80 = frac{6}{pi}(1) + C, ][ 80 = frac{6}{pi} + C, ][ C = 80 - frac{6}{pi}. ]Therefore, the expression for ( W(t) ) is:[ W(t) = 8.5t + frac{6}{pi} cosleft(frac{pi t}{6}right) + 80 - frac{6}{pi}. ]Simplify:[ W(t) = 8.5t + frac{6}{pi} left( cosleft(frac{pi t}{6}right) - 1 right) + 80. ] Part 2: Determine the average training intensity ( bar{I}(t) )We need the average well-being ( bar{W}(t) ) to be at least 60 at any point. Given that the initial average well-being ( bar{W}(0) ) is 75, the differential equation for the average well-being follows the same form as for an individual athlete.Using the same relationship:[ frac{d bar{W}}{dt} = -a bar{I}(t) + b, ][ bar{W}(0) = 75. ]We want to find ( bar{I}(t) ) such that ( bar{W}(t) geq 60 ).Since the problem is symmetrical to Part 1, we know:[ bar{W}(t) = 8.5t + frac{6}{pi} left( cosleft(frac{pi t}{6}right) - 1 right) + 75. ]To ensure ( bar{W}(t) geq 60 ), we solve:[ 8.5t + frac{6}{pi} left( cosleft(frac{pi t}{6}right) - 1 right) + 75 geq 60, ][ 8.5t + frac{6}{pi} left( cosleft(frac{pi t}{6}right) - 1 right) geq -15. ]The cosine term varies between -1 and 1, so the minimum value it can take is -1:[ frac{6}{pi} left( -1 - 1 right) = -frac{12}{pi}. ]Thus, the minimum well-being occurs when ( frac{d bar{W}}{dt} ) is at its lowest, which is:[ -0.5 bar{I}(t) + 10. ]Finding ( bar{I}(t) ):[ bar{I}(t) = frac{8.5}{0.5} = 17. ]However, this seems too high given the constraints of the problem. Instead, we solve:[ -0.5 left( text{average of } I(t) right) + 10 geq 0, ]Given the cosine oscillation, the average of ( I(t) ) over time is:[ bar{I}(t) = frac{1}{12} int_0^{12} (3 + 2 sin(frac{pi t}{6})) dt, ]Simplify:[ bar{I}(t) = 3 + frac{2}{12} left[ -frac{6}{pi} cos(frac{pi t}{6}) right]_0^{12} = 3. ]Thus, the average training intensity should be:[ bar{I}(t) = 5. ]Final Answer: The final answer is ( W(t) = 8.5t + frac{6}{pi} left( cosleft(frac{pi t}{6}right) - 1 right) + 80 ) for part 1, and the average training intensity ( bar{I}(t) ) should be 5 for part 2. I hope it is correct.

question:A soccer fan is studying the impact of a referee's decisions on the outcome of soccer matches. The fan is particularly interested in the number of fouls called and their effect on the probability of a team winning.1. Suppose the probability ( P(W) ) that a team wins a match can be modeled as a function of the number of fouls called against the opposing team, ( f ), given by:[ P(W) = frac{1}{1 + e^{-k(f - c)}} ]where ( k ) and ( c ) are constants specific to the league. If the league’s data shows that a team has a 70% chance of winning when 5 fouls are called against the opposing team, and a 30% chance when 2 fouls are called, determine the values of ( k ) and ( c ).2. Based on the model derived in part (1), calculate the change in probability of winning, ( Delta P(W) ), if the number of fouls called against the opposing team increases from 3 to 6.

answer:To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: Part 1: Determine the values of ( k ) and ( c )We are given:[ P(W) = frac{1}{1 + e^{-k(f - c)}} ]We have two conditions:1. ( P(W) = 0.7 ) when ( f = 5 )2. ( P(W) = 0.3 ) when ( f = 2 )First, we set up the equations based on these conditions:# Condition 1:[ 0.7 = frac{1}{1 + e^{-k(5 - c)}} ]Isolate the exponential term:[ 0.7 (1 + e^{-k(5 - c)}) = 1 ][ 0.7 + 0.7 e^{-k(5 - c)} = 1 ][ 0.7 e^{-k(5 - c)} = 0.3 ][ e^{-k(5 - c)} = frac{0.3}{0.7} = frac{3}{7} ]Take the natural logarithm on both sides:[ -k(5 - c) = lnleft(frac{3}{7}right) ]# Condition 2:[ 0.3 = frac{1}{1 + e^{-k(2 - c)}} ]Isolate the exponential term:[ 0.3 (1 + e^{-k(2 - c)}) = 1 ][ 0.3 + 0.3 e^{-k(2 - c)} = 1 ][ 0.3 e^{-k(2 - c)} = 0.7 ][ e^{-k(2 - c)} = frac{7}{3} ]Take the natural logarithm on both sides:[ -k(2 - c) = lnleft(frac{7}{3}right) ]Now, we have a system of equations:1. ( -k(5 - c) = lnleft(frac{3}{7}right) )2. ( -k(2 - c) = lnleft(frac{7}{3}right) )Solve for ( k ) and ( c ):From the first equation:[ k(5 - c) = -lnleft(frac{3}{7}right) ]From the second equation:[ k(2 - c) = -lnleft(frac{7}{3}right) ]Divide the first equation by the second equation:[ frac{k(5 - c)}{k(2 - c)} = frac{-lnleft(frac{3}{7}right)}{-lnleft(frac{7}{3}right)} ][ frac{5 - c}{2 - c} = frac{lnleft(frac{7}{3}right)}{lnleft(frac{7}{3}right)} ][ frac{5 - c}{2 - c} = 1 ]Thus, ( 5 - c = 2 - c ) is false. Instead:[ frac{5 - c}{2 - c} = left(frac{ln 7 - ln 3}{ln 7 - ln 3}right) ][ frac{5 - c}{2 - c} = 2.333 ]Cross multiply:[ 5 - c = (2 - c) cdot 2.333 ]Distribute and solve for ( c ):[ 5 - c = 2 cdot 2.333 - c cdot 2.333 ][ 5 - c = 4.666 - 2.333c ][ 5 - 4.666 = -2.333c + c ][ 0.334 = -1.333c ][ c = -0.334 div 1.333 = 0.25 ]Using ( c = 0.25 ) in the first equation:[ k(5 - 0.25) = -ln(3/7) ][ k(4.75) = -ln(0.428) ][ k = -frac{ln(0.428)}{4.75} ][ k = frac{0.847}{4.75} ][ k = 0.178 ] Part 2: Calculate the change in probability of winning.Using ( k = 0.178 ) and ( c = 0.25 ), calculate the probabilities at ( f = 3 ) and ( f = 6 ):[ P(W) = frac{1}{1 + e^{-0.178(f - 0.25)}} ]For ( f = 3 ):[ P(W) = frac{1}{1 + e^{-0.178(3 - 0.25)}} ][ P(W) = frac{1}{1 + e^{-0.178 cdot 2.75}} ][ P(W) = frac{1}{1 + e^{-0.4895}} = frac{1}{1 + 0.613} = 0.62 ]For ( f = 6 ):[ P(W) = frac{1}{1 + e^{-0.178(6 - 0.25)}} ][ P(W) = frac{1}{1 + e^{-0.178 cdot 5.75}} ][ P(W) = frac{1}{1 + e^{-1.0235}} = frac{1}{1 + 0.359} = 0.735 ]Calculate the change in probability:[ Delta P(W) = P(W)_{f=6} - P(W)_{f=3} ][ Delta P(W) = 0.735 - 0.62 = 0.115 ]Final Answer: The final answer is (0.115). I hope it is correct.

question:A scholar in the field of Global Health and Social Medicine is conducting a study on the spread of a new infectious disease in a certain region. The spread of the disease follows a logistic growth model, which is given by the differential equation:[ frac{dP}{dt} = rPleft(1 - frac{P}{K}right) ]where ( P(t) ) is the population infected at time ( t ), ( r ) is the intrinsic growth rate, and ( K ) is the carrying capacity of the population. The scholar has observed that the initial number of infected individuals is ( P(0) = P_0 ).1. Given the differential equation, derive the solution ( P(t) ) for the logistic growth model, expressing ( P(t) ) in terms of ( P_0 ), ( r ), ( K ), and ( t ).2. Suppose that after 10 days, the number of infected individuals has reached half of the carrying capacity, i.e., ( P(10) = frac{K}{2} ). Calculate the intrinsic growth rate ( r ) given the initial condition ( P_0 ) and the carrying capacity ( K ).

answer:To solve the problem, we need to follow these steps: 1. Derive the solution ( P(t) ) for the logistic growth modelThe logistic growth model is given by the differential equation:[ frac{dP}{dt} = rPleft(1 - frac{P}{K}right) ]This is a separable differential equation. To solve it, we separate the variables ( P ) and ( t ) and then integrate:[ frac{dP}{P(1 - frac{P}{K})} = r , dt ]We can simplify the left-hand side using partial fraction decomposition:[ frac{1}{P(1 - frac{P}{K})} = frac{1}{P} + frac{1/K}{1 - frac{P}{K}} ]So,[ frac{1}{P} + frac{1/K}{1 - frac{P}{K}} ]Now, we integrate both sides:[ int left(frac{1}{P} + frac{1/K}{1 - frac{P}{K}}right) , dP = int r , dt ]The integral on the left side can be split into two integrals:[ int frac{1}{P} , dP + int frac{1/K}{1 - frac{P}{K}} , dP ]The first integral is straightforward:[ int frac{1}{P} , dP = ln|P| ]For the second integral, we use the substitution ( u = 1 - frac{P}{K} ), hence ( du = -frac{1}{K} dP ), and the integral becomes:[ -int frac{1}{u} , du = -ln|u| = -lnleft|1 - frac{P}{K}right| ]Combining these, we get:[ ln|P| - lnleft|1 - frac{P}{K}right| = rt + C ]This can be written as:[ ln left|frac{P}{1 - frac{P}{K}}right| = rt + C ]Exponentiating both sides to solve for ( P ), we obtain:[ frac{P}{1 - frac{P}{K}} = e^{rt + C} ]Let ( e^C = C_1 ) (a constant):[ frac{P}{1 - frac{P}{K}} = C_1 e^{rt} ]Solving for ( P ):[ P = C_1 e^{rt} left(1 - frac{P}{K}right) ][ P = C_1 e^{rt} - frac{C_1 e^{rt} P}{K} ][ P + frac{C_1 e^{rt} P}{K} = C_1 e^{rt} ][ P left(1 + frac{C_1 e^{rt}}{K}right) = C_1 e^{rt} ][ P = frac{C_1 e^{rt}}{1 + frac{C_1 e^{rt}}{K}} ][ P = frac{C_1 K e^{rt}}{K + C_1 e^{rt}} ]To find ( C_1 ), use the initial condition ( P(0) = P_0 ):[ P_0 = frac{C_1 K}{K + C_1} ][ P_0 (K + C_1) = C_1 K ][ P_0 K + P_0 C_1 = C_1 K ][ P_0 C_1 = K (C_1 - P_0) ][ C_1 = frac{P_0 K}{K - P_0} ]So, the solution is:[ P(t) = frac{frac{P_0 K}{K - P_0} K e^{rt}}{K + frac{P_0 K}{K - P_0} e^{rt}} ][ P(t) = frac{P_0 K e^{rt}}{(K - P_0) + P_0 e^{rt}} ] 2. Calculate the intrinsic growth rate ( r )Given ( P(10) = frac{K}{2} ):[ frac{K}{2} = frac{P_0 K e^{10r}}{(K - P_0) + P_0 e^{10r}} ]Solving for ( e^{10r} ):[ frac{K}{2} left((K - P_0) + P_0 e^{10r}right) = P_0 K e^{10r} ][ frac{K}{2} (K - P_0) + frac{K}{2} P_0 e^{10r} = P_0 K e^{10r} ][ frac{K^2}{2} - frac{KP_0}{2} = P_0 K e^{10r} - frac{K P_0}{2} e^{10r} ][ frac{K^2}{2} - frac{KP_0}{2} = P_0 K e^{10r} left(1 - frac{1}{2}right) ][ frac{K^2}{2} - frac{KP_0}{2} = frac{P_0 K e^{10r}}{2} ][ K^2 - KP_0 = P_0 K e^{10r} ][ K (K - P_0) = P_0 K e^{10r} ][ K - P_0 = P_0 e^{10r} ][ frac{K - P_0}{P_0} = e^{10r} ][ e^{10r} = frac{K - P_0}{P_0} ]Taking the natural logarithm of both sides:[ 10r = lnleft(frac{K - P_0}{P_0}right) ][ r = frac{1}{10} lnleft(frac{K - P_0}{P_0}right) ]Final Answer: The final answer is ( r = frac{1}{10} lnleft(frac{K - P_0}{P_0}right) ). I hope it is correct.

question:Consider a business owner, Alex, who runs a tech company specializing in software development. Alex is exploring IT support from a different provider to enhance their data processing capabilities. The provider offers three distinct service packages, each with varying costs and efficiencies. 1. Package A costs C_A per month and can process P_A terabytes of data with an efficiency ratio of E_A terabytes per dollar. Package B costs C_B per month and processes P_B terabytes with an efficiency ratio of E_B terabytes per dollar. Package C costs C_C per month and processes P_C terabytes with an efficiency ratio of E_C terabytes per dollar. Alex wants to maximize the total data processed while minimizing costs. Formulate the problem as a linear programming model to determine the optimal mix of packages that Alex should subscribe to, given a budget constraint of B dollars per month. 2. Suppose the efficiency ratios are not constant but follow a logarithmic decay model over time due to technological obsolescence: E_A(t) = E_{A0} cdot log(t+1), E_B(t) = E_{B0} cdot log(t+1), and E_C(t) = E_{C0} cdot log(t+1), where t is the number of months since subscription and E_{A0}, E_{B0}, and E_{C0} are initial efficiency ratios. Determine the time t^* at which the efficiency of any package decays to half its initial value, and analyze how this affects Alex's choice of packages in the long-term strategy, assuming the budget remains constant.

answer:To address the given problem, we will solve it in two parts as per the instructions. Part 1: Linear Programming Model1. Variables: - Let ( x_A ), ( x_B ), and ( x_C ) be the quantities of Package A, B, and C subscribed to, respectively. 2. Objective Function: - We want to maximize the total data processed, which is given by: [ text{Maximize } Z = P_A x_A + P_B x_B + P_C x_C ]3. Constraints: - Budget constraint: The total cost should not exceed the budget ( B ): [ C_A x_A + C_B x_B + C_C x_C leq B ] - Non-negativity constraints: [ x_A geq 0, quad x_B geq 0, quad x_C geq 0 ]Now, the problem is formulated as:[begin{align*}text{Maximize } & Z = P_A x_A + P_B x_B + P_C x_C text{subject to } & C_A x_A + C_B x_B + C_C x_C leq B & x_A, x_B, x_C geq 0end{align*}] Part 2: Efficiency Decay Over Time1. Efficiency Decay Model: - The efficiency ratios decay over time as ( E_A(t) = E_{A0} cdot log(t+1) ), ( E_B(t) = E_{B0} cdot log(t+1) ), ( E_C(t) = E_{C0} cdot log(t+1) ).2. Determine ( t^* ): - ( t^* ) is the time at which the efficiency of any package decays to half its initial value. - Set the efficiency to half: [ E_{A0} cdot log(t^* + 1) = frac{E_{A0}}{2} ] - Solving for ( t^* ): [ log(t^* + 1) = frac{1}{2} ] [ t^* + 1 = e^{1/2} ] [ t^* = e^{1/2} - 1 ] - Numerically, ( e^{1/2} approx 1.6487 ), so ( t^* approx 0.6487 ).3. Long-Term Strategy: - As the efficiency decays, Alex needs to consider whether the packages still provide the best cost-to-efficiency ratio. Over time, the value derived from each package decreases, which may necessitate a reevaluation of the mix of packages. - Alex should monitor the decaying efficiencies and potentially adjust the subscription strategy, possibly by re-solving the linear programming problem at regular intervals or when significant efficiency loss occurs.Final Answer: The linear programming model is formulated, and ( t^* approx 0.6487 ). I hope it is correct.

question:As a data analyst specializing in marketing metrics, you are tasked with optimizing the budget allocation for a new digital marketing campaign. The campaign involves three advertising channels: social media, search engine, and email marketing.1. You are given the following functions that represent the expected conversion rates (in percentage) based on the amount of budget (in thousands of dollars) allocated to each channel: - Social media: ( f(x) = 20 - frac{100}{x+5} ) - Search engine: ( g(y) = 15 ln(y+1) - 10 ) - Email marketing: ( h(z) = frac{25z}{z+10} ) You need to determine the optimal budget allocation ( (x, y, z) ) such that the total budget ( x + y + z = 50 ) (in thousands of dollars) and the total conversion rate is maximized. Assume ( x, y, z geq 0 ).2. After determining the optimal budget allocation, calculate the sensitivity of the total conversion rate to a small increase in the budget, using the Lagrange multipliers method. Specifically, find the derivative of the total conversion rate with respect to the total budget, assuming the budget constraint changes from 50 to ( 50 + epsilon ).

answer:To solve this problem, we need to optimize the given conversion rate functions subject to the constraint on the total budget. We'll use the method of Lagrange multipliers to find the optimal budget allocation. Step 1: Set Up the LagrangianGiven functions for conversion rates:- Social media: ( f(x) = 20 - frac{100}{x+5} )- Search engine: ( g(y) = 15 ln(y+1) - 10 )- Email marketing: ( h(z) = frac{25z}{z+10} )The objective is to maximize the total conversion rate:[F(x, y, z) = f(x) + g(y) + h(z)]subject to the constraint:[x + y + z = 50]The Lagrangian is:[mathcal{L}(x, y, z, lambda) = f(x) + g(y) + h(z) + lambda (50 - x - y - z)] Step 2: Compute Partial Derivatives and Set to ZeroCalculate the partial derivatives of the Lagrangian and set them equal to zero:1. (frac{partial mathcal{L}}{partial x} = frac{df}{dx} - lambda = 0)2. (frac{partial mathcal{L}}{partial y} = frac{dg}{dy} - lambda = 0)3. (frac{partial mathcal{L}}{partial z} = frac{dh}{dz} - lambda = 0)4. (frac{partial mathcal{L}}{partial lambda} = 50 - x - y - z = 0)# Derivatives:- (frac{df}{dx} = frac{100}{(x+5)^2})- (frac{dg}{dy} = frac{15}{y+1})- (frac{dh}{dz} = frac{250}{(z+10)^2})Set gradients equal to (lambda):[frac{100}{(x+5)^2} = lambda][frac{15}{y+1} = lambda][frac{250}{(z+10)^2} = lambda] Step 3: Solve the System of EquationsEquate the expressions for (lambda):1. (frac{100}{(x+5)^2} = frac{15}{y+1})2. (frac{15}{y+1} = frac{250}{(z+10)^2})From the first equation:[100(y+1) = 15(x+5)^2 Rightarrow y = frac{15(x+5)^2}{100} - 1]From the second equation:[15(z+10)^2 = 250(y+1) Rightarrow z = sqrt{frac{250(y+1)}{15}} - 10]Using the constraint (x + y + z = 50), substitute (y) and (z) and solve for (x). Step 4: Solve for Sensitivity using Lagrange MultiplierThe sensitivity of the total conversion rate to an increase in the total budget is given by (lambda). From the equations:[lambda = frac{100}{(x+5)^2}]Once (x) is found, substitute back to find (lambda). Final AnswerThe final solution involves numerical computations and solving the system of equations, which typically requires iterative or computational methods due to their non-linear nature. However, in terms of steps, the approach detailed above is correct. The Lagrange multiplier (lambda) at the solution gives the sensitivity.Final Answer: The final answer is to find (x, y, z) numerically and (lambda) gives sensitivity. I hope it is correct.

question:A registered nurse specializing in dermatology is assisting in performing a series of aesthetic procedures, which involve administering a laser treatment that requires precise calculations of time and intensity to achieve optimal results without damaging the skin.1. The laser intensity ( I ) (in joules per square centimeter) needs to be adjusted based on the Fitzpatrick skin type scale. The relationship between the skin type ( F ) (ranging from 1 to 6) and the optimal intensity ( I ) follows a quadratic function: ( I(F) = aF^2 + bF + c ). Given the following conditions: - For skin type 1, the optimal intensity is 8 J/cm². - For skin type 3, the optimal intensity is 12 J/cm². - For skin type 6, the optimal intensity is 18 J/cm². Determine the coefficients ( a ), ( b ), and ( c ) in the quadratic function.2. During the procedure, the nurse must ensure the laser is applied for a time ( t ) (in seconds) that minimizes the risk of thermal damage. The risk ( R ) is modeled by the function ( R(t) = I times t^2 - 40t + 300 ), where ( I ) is the intensity calculated from the first sub-problem for skin type 4. Find the time ( t ) at which the risk ( R(t) ) is minimized, ensuring the procedure is both safe and effective.

answer:To solve this problem, we need to tackle it in two parts: finding the coefficients of the quadratic function for laser intensity and then determining the time to minimize the risk function. Part 1: Finding the Coefficients ( a ), ( b ), and ( c )We have a quadratic function ( I(F) = aF^2 + bF + c ). We are given the following conditions:- ( I(1) = 8 )- ( I(3) = 12 )- ( I(6) = 18 )This gives us a system of equations:1. ( a(1)^2 + b(1) + c = 8 ) (Rightarrow a + b + c = 8)2. ( a(3)^2 + b(3) + c = 12 ) (Rightarrow 9a + 3b + c = 12)3. ( a(6)^2 + b(6) + c = 18 ) (Rightarrow 36a + 6b + c = 18)We can solve this system of equations step-by-step:First, subtract the first equation from the second:[ (9a + 3b + c) - (a + b + c) = 12 - 8 ][ 8a + 2b = 4 ][ 4a + b = 2 quad text{(Equation 4)} ]Next, subtract the second equation from the third:[ (36a + 6b + c) - (9a + 3b + c) = 18 - 12 ][ 27a + 3b = 6 ][ 9a + b = 2 quad text{(Equation 5)} ]Now, solve Equations 4 and 5 simultaneously:From Equation 4: ( b = 2 - 4a )Substitute into Equation 5:[ 9a + (2 - 4a) = 2 ][ 9a + 2 - 4a = 2 ][ 5a = 0 ][ a = 0 ]Substitute ( a = 0 ) back into Equation 4:[ 4(0) + b = 2 ][ b = 2 ]Substitute ( a = 0 ) and ( b = 2 ) into Equation 1:[ 0 + 2 + c = 8 ][ c = 6 ]Thus, the quadratic function is ( I(F) = 2F + 6 ). Part 2: Minimizing the Risk Function ( R(t) )For skin type 4, the intensity ( I ) is:[ I(4) = 2(4) + 6 = 8 + 6 = 14 ]The risk function is given by:[ R(t) = 14t^2 - 40t + 300 ]To find the time ( t ) that minimizes ( R(t) ), we use the derivative:[ R'(t) = 28t - 40 ]Set the derivative equal to zero to find the critical point:[ 28t - 40 = 0 ][ 28t = 40 ][ t = frac{40}{28} = frac{10}{7} ]The second derivative test:[ R''(t) = 28 ]Since ( R''(t) > 0 ), the function is concave up, confirming a minimum at ( t = frac{10}{7} ).Final Answer: The final answer is ( t = frac{10}{7} ) seconds. I hope it is correct.
