3 1 The spread of a disease in a small town is modelled by the equation N=A1+34e−0.2t where A is a constant. In the equation, N is the number of people infected by the end of Day t. It is known that 25 people were infected by the end of Day 0 before the disease started spreading. (i) Find the value of A. [2] (ii) Hence, determine if the disease is expected to have infected more than 95 people by the end of Day 7. [2] 2 It is given that cosecθ=k, where 0<θ<π.
