Neco 2024 Islamic Religious Studies Question 25
Practice objective / multiple choice question 25 from the 2024 Neco Islamic Religious Studies examination.
The number of Muslim traders operating in West Africa is modelled by the logistic function \(N(t)=\frac{K}{1+ae^{-bt}}\), where \(K=5000\) is the carrying capacity, \(t\) is the number of years after the start of observation, and \(a,b\) are positive constants. At the start (\(t=0\)) there were \(200\) traders, and after \(30\) years there were \(1500\) traders.\n\n(a) Determine the intrinsic growth rate \(b\) (to three decimal places).\n(b) Using this model, find the calendar year (to the nearest year) in which the number of traders will reach \(4000\), given that the observation started in \(1200\) CE.
