A certain lake currently has an average trout population of 10,000. The population naturally oscillates above and below average by 1,000 every year. This year, the lake was opened to fishermen. If fishermen catch 2,000 fish every year, how long will it take for the lake to have no more trout? (Assume that the trout population at the beginning of the year is increasing. Round your answer to two decimal places.)

A study of the population average income in a certain area was conducted. A sample of 25 households was selected at random for a poll. The sample based average annual income was found as (X-bar) = $53,600, with the sample standard deviation found as (S = $12,000). Assume that individual records are normally distributed with an unknown population standard deviation. Estimate the population average income with the 99% confidence. Answer all questions below.

North Lake currently has one In‐n-­Out franchise. Daily demand for hamburgers in North Lake is given by Q=200-­10P. All In-­n-­Out franchises have costs of TC=50+3Q for producing Q hamburgers.Suppose a second In‐n-­Out opens, and the two stores compete by choosing output sequentially, with the current owner choosing first (Stackleberg). How will the equilibrium price for hamburgers change if the new franchise were to open.

Currently, among the 20 individuals of a population, 2 have a certain infection that spreads as follows: Contacts between two members of the population occur in accordance with a Poisson process having rate ?. When a contact occurs, it is equally likely to involve any of the possible pairs of individuals in the population. If a contact involves an infected and a non-infected individual, then, with probability p the non-infected individual becomes infected. Once infected, an individual remains infected throughout....
