5. Population growth is more realistically modeled logistically, rather than exponentially. In an experiment with the protozoan Paramecium, a biologist determines a system's carrying capacity to be 64 (in units of 10,000 Paramecium) and its growth constant to be 0.7944. Growth is measured over days and the population's initial value is 2. (A) Write an equation that gives the population of the protozoan at a time t. a (B) What will the population be after 4 days ? (C) When will the population be 50 ?
