You are asked to find the value of a certain number associated with the logistic function shown below. f(x) = \frac{L}{1 + Ae^{-Bt}} The B value is 0.6 per year. What percentage growth rate would the population show in the absence of constraints? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.) %

Apply Logistic Growth Models
Danielle F.
The logistic differential equation models the growth rate of a population. Use the equation to (a) find the value of $k$, (b) find the carrying capacity, (c) use a computer algebra system to graph a slope field, and (d) determine the value of $P$ at which the population growth rate is the greatest. $\frac{d P}{d t}=0.1 P-0.0004 P^{2}$
Differential Equations
Separation of Variables and the Logistic Equation
The population is growing at about $6 \%$ each year. If the population in 2005 is 296.6 million, (a) determine an exponential equation representing the population as a function of year. (b) What will be the population in $2010 ?$ (c) What was the population in $2003 ?$
