Estimating the time of a victim’s death during homicide investigations is a complex problem that cannot be solved by analysising simple equations or functions of one variable. However, many mathematical texts examine time of death estimation based around analysis of Newton’s Law of Cooling. Such analysis is based on implicit simplifying assumptions that: the only dependent variable of interest in determining the time of death is the victim’s body temperature, T(t); the victim’s baseline body temperature when alive, T0, is known; and the air temperature of the victim’s surroundings, Ts, is constant. Here we will examine such a problem.
(a) Assume that immediately following death, a victim’s body begins to cool from a standard healthy body temperature of 37◦ Celsius. Further, assume that experimental work has determined that the rate constant in Newton’s Law of Cooling for a human body is approximately k = 0.1947 when time t is measured in hours. Determine a function derived from Newton’s Law of Cooling, T(t), that models the temperature of a victim’s body t hours after death, assuming that the temperature of the body’s surroundings is a constant 15.5◦ Celsius
. (b) If the temperature of the victim’s body is now 22.2◦, how long ago was their time of death? (c) If the victim’s body temperature at death had instead been 36.3◦ Celsius (within the range of normal body temperatures for a healthy adult), what time of death would be estimated via a Newton’s Law of Cooling model? By what duration does this estimate differ to the time that you determined in part
(b)? (d) In reality, how might the modelling assumptions made to address this problem be violated?

A population of 50 mice was introduced into a field where there haven't been any mice before. Even though they had to deal with predators, the population grew at 2% per month.
1. Create an exponential model where p in the population of mice and m is the number of months that have passed since the initial population was introduced.
2. How many months does your model say it will take the population to reach 100? How about 200? Fill in the blanks and explain how you did it
It will take ________ months from the initial introduction for the population to reach 100, and _______ months from the initial introduction for the population to reach 200.
3. The "rule of 70" says that if a number grows at p% per time period, it will take about 70/p time periods to double. For example, a population that grows at 1% per year should take about 70/1=70 years to double. Explain how your work in the previous problem shows that this "rule" was followed by the mouse population.
