An Application Of A Dynamic Model of Malaria Spread

Abstract

The use of Mathematics to solve real-world problems has become widespread. This paper describes the modeling of spread of malaria disease. Data from Pull and Grab (1974) was used to verify the model and the goodness- of- fit was used to validate the model and the observed data. The Chi-Square test statistics shows that as time increases th proportion of affected human population by malaria at time X(t) remains constant at significant levels of 10% and 5% (a=0.1 and a = 0.05).
