7. [0.4/1 Points] DETAILS dp dt 1_p1 315 Suppose the population of the world was about 6.3 billion in 2000. Birth rates around that time ranged from 35 to 40 million per year and death rates ranged from 15 to 20 million per year. Let's assume that the carrying capacity for world population is 20 billion. (a) Write the logistic differential equation for these data. (Because the initial population is small compared to the carrying capacity, you can take k to be an estimate of the initial relative growth rate. Calculate k using the maximum birth rate and maximum death rate. Round your value of k to six decimal places. Let t = 0 correspond to the year 2000.) – PREVIOUS ANSWERS Need Help?
