Let t represent the total number of hours that a truck driver spends during a year driving
Question:
Let t represent the total number of hours that a truck driver spends during a year driving on a certain highway connecting two cities, and let p(t) represent the probability that the driver will have at least one accident during these t hours. Then, 0 … p(t) … 1, and 1 - p(t) represents the probability of not having an accident. Under ordinary conditions, the rate of increase in the probability of an accident (as a function of t) is proportional to the probability of not having an accident. Construct and solve a differential equation for this situation.
