Constant Yield Harvesting. In this problem, we assume that fish are caught at a constant rate h independent of the size of the fish population, that is, the harvesting rate H(y, t) = h. Then y satisfies dy/dt = r(1 − y/K )y − h = f (y). (ii) The assumption of a constant catch rate h may be reasonable when y is large but becomes less so when y is small.
(a) If h < rK/4, show that Eq. (ii) has two equilibrium points y1 and y2 with y1 < y2; determine these points.
(b) Show that y1 is unstable and y2 is asymptotically stable.
(c) From a plot of f (y) versus y, show that if the initial population y0 > y1, then y → y2 as t → ∞, but if y0 < y1, then y decreases as t increases. Note that y = 0 is not an equilibrium point, so if y0 < y1, then extinction will be reached in a finite time.
(d) If h > rK/4, show that y decreases to zero as t increases regardless of the value of y0. (e) If h = rK/4, show that there is a single equilibrium point y = K/2 and that this point is semistable. Thus the maximum sustainable yield is hm = rK/4, corresponding to the equilibrium value y=K/2. Observe that hm has the same value as Y m in Problem 1
(d). The fishery is considered to be overexploited if y is reduced to a level below K/2.

A patient is ordered to receive sodium supplementation by intravenous infusion of a sodium phosphate dibasic solution [Na2H PO4 , MW=141.96 g/mol]. The patient is ordered to receive 0.5 mEq of Na + ions per hour.
A 500 mL intravenous bag is prepared that contains 47 mL of a 1% solution of sodium phosphate dibasic. What should be the infusion rate (in units of mL/min) necessary to produce the ordered dose of 0.5 mEq/hr of sodium?
(Note: Consider the total solution volume to be 500 mL. Also assume the sodium phosphate dibasic salt completely disassociates in solution. Please do not assume the specifics of this question are exactly clinically relevant due to the variability in this question.)

1. Calculating inflation using a simple price index
Consider a fictional price index, the College Student Price Index (CSPI), based on a typical college student’s annual purchases. Suppose the following table shows information on the market basket for the CSPI and the prices of each of the goods in 2017, 2018, and 2019.
The cost of each item in the basket and the total cost of the basket are shown for 2017.
Perform these same calculations for 2018 and 2019, and enter the results in the following table.

Suppose the base year for this price index is 2017.
In the last row of the table, calculate and enter the value of the CSPI for the remaining years.
Between 2017 and 2018, the CSPI increased by
. Between 2018 and 2019, the CSPI increased by
.
Which of the following, if true, would illustrate why price indexes such as the CSPI might overstate inflation in the cost of going to college? Check all that apply.
Professors required each student to buy eight textbooks, regardless of the price.
As the price of textbooks increased, more and more students turned to the used-book market or chose not to buy textbooks at all, instead using the copies on reserve in the library.
The quality and design of calculators improved dramatically from 2017 to 2019. For example, calculators made in 2019 accept memory cards, whereas those made in 2017 do not, but this quality change is hard to measure.
A new, safe method of memory enhancement became available for purchase.
