Question 24

The concentration CCC of a specific pheromone within a beehive varies with the distance xxx (measured in metres) from the entrance according to a complex biological model.

a.

Express 5(1+4x)(1−x)\frac{5}{(1+4x)(1-x)}(1+4x)(1−x)5​ in partial fractions.

[3]
b.

The relationship between the concentration and the distance is governed by the differential equation

(1+4x)(1−x)dCdx=tan⁡C (1+4x)(1-x) \frac{dC}{dx} = \tan C (1+4x)(1−x)dxdC​=tanC

for the interval −14<x<1-\frac{1}{4} < x < 1−41​<x<1. Given that the concentration at the entrance is C=π2C = \frac{\pi}{2}C=2π​ when x=0x = 0x=0, determine the particular solution for this model.

Give your answer in the form sin⁡nC=f(x)\sin^n C = f(x)sinnC=f(x), where nnn is an integer to be found.
