Our Heavenly Father,

We thank You for the opportunity to begin this new
day.
Please forgive our sins. Help us to focus our heart
and mind on what we are about to learn.
We ask that You bless and guide us in all ways so
that we will seek Your will in everything that we do.

In Jesus name, we pray.

DIFFERENTIAL
EQUATION:
GROWTH AND
DECAY
A Differential Equation is an equation with a function and one
or more of its derivatives:
Important terms:
Particular Solution – it can be obtained if an initial condition is given.

Initial Condition – the given value of x and y

General Solution – getting the antiderivative

 Example 1
◦  
Find the equation that satisfies the differential equation and the initial
condition.  
 

 
 Therefore, the equation is
Example 2
◦  
Find the equation of the curve that satisfied the given conditions:
At each point (x,y) on the curve, the slope is 2x + 1. The curve passes through the point (-3,0).
 
GIVEN:  
 

 
Initial condition: (-3,0)
 Therefore, the equation of the
curve is
Differential Equation: Growth and Decay
◦  
• As the population increases at a
given time “t” the growth rate also
increases.

Where:
• k is called the continuous
f (t) = value at time “t” growth rate if it is positive, or
C = is the value of the function at time t = 0, initial value the continuous decay rate if it
is negative
k = rate of growth (when >0) or decay (when <0)
t = time
Example 1
Exponential Decay
A discovered element when Exposed on the surface of earth becomes radioactive. How long will it take for the
element with mass of 5 grams to decay to 2 grams if the half-life of the said element is 17,900 years. (Half-life is
the time it takes for half of a substance to decay.)

  t = 0, f (t) = 5
At 17,900 years, t = 17,900, f(t) = 5 ÷ 2 = 2.5 C = 5
  𝑙𝑛 𝑒 𝑥 = 𝑥
 
 
 
   Therefore, the rate of decay
is .
 
 
 
 
 

 
f(t) = 2, k = 0.0000387, C=5, t = ?

 
 

   
   
 
 
Therefore, it takes approximately 23,676.76 years to decay a 5
grams element to 2 grams.
Example 2

In a pond, a new species of algae is cultured.

After the second day, its colony grew up to 5 cm in diameter and in
the 5th day it grew to 8 cm. if the growth of the colony of algae
follows the law of exponential growth, approximate the diameter of
the colony on the first day it was introduced in the pond.
Using the given f(2) = 5, we can have equation 1 for our system.

At second day, t =2, f(t) = 5 At fifth day, t = 5, f(t) = 8

   
   

   

   

   

 
 
 Our equation 1 is ,
 Our equation 2 is
◦  
Equating equations 1 and 2, we have:
Where, for equation 1 and for equation 2,

   
   

 
 
 
 
 
 
Solving for the initial diameter, we have:
f(t) = 5, t = 2, k =   0.16,
 

 
Therefore, the initial diameter of the colony on
  the first day it was introduced in the pond is
3.6 centimeter,
 

 
Remember:
• In solving differential equations gowth and decay we have
many solutions, and different rule that we have to consider like
applying the properties of exponential and logarithmic
functions.
 
• As the population increases at a given time “t” the growth rate
also increases.
 
• k is called the continuous growth rate if it is positive, or the
continuous decay rate if it is negative.
 Activity
In a liquid culture the amount of bacteria doubles every 5 minutes. If the amount of
the bacteria present initially is 2,000, how long will it take before there will be
100,000? The amount of bacteria increase exponentially.
 
Solution:
When t = 5, y = 2,000 × 2 = 4,000
   
   

   

   

 
 Activity
 When t = ?, f(t) = 100,000
