Suppose that the initial size of a population is n0 and the population grows exponentially. Let n(t) be the size of the population at time t. (a) Write a formula for n(t) in terms of the doubling time a. (b) Write a formula for n(t) in terms of the relative growth rate r.
More on the Pacific Sardine This is a continuation of Example 5.1. In this exercise, we explore the Pacific sardine population further, using the model in Example 5.1. a. If the current level of the Pacific sardine population is 50,000 tons, how long will it take for the population to recover to the optimum growth level of 1.2milliontons? Suggestion: One way to solve this is to make a new logistic formula using K2.4, r0.338, and N(0)0.05. b. The value of r used in Example 5.1 ignores the effects of fishing. If fishing mortality is taken into account, then r drops to 0.215 per year with the carrying capacity still at 2.4milliontons. Answer the question in part a using this lower value of r. Note: The population estimate of 50,000 tons and the adjusted value of r are given in the paper by Murphy see footnote 3 on page 347. Murphy points out that factoring in the growth of the competing anchovy population makes the recovery times even longer, and he adds. "It is disconcerting to realize how slowly the population will recover to its level of maximum productivity ... even if fishing stops." Studies to fit a logistic model to the Pacific sardine population have yielded. N=241+239e0.338t where t is measured in years and N is measured in millions of tons of fish. Part 1 What is r for the Pacific sardine? Part 2 According to the logistic model, in the absence of limiting factors, what would be the annual percentage growth rate for the Pacific sardine? Part 3 What is the environmental carrying capacity K? Part 4 What is the optimum yield level? Part 5 Make a graph of N versus t. Part 6 At what time t should the population he harvested? Part 7 What portion of the graph is concave up? What portion is concave down?
Sales of a video game released in the year 2000 took off at first, but then steadily slowed as time moved on. Table 4 shows the number of games sold, in thousands, from the years 20002010. a. Let x represent time in years starting with x=1 for the year 2000. Let y represent the number of games sold in thousands. Use logarithmic regression to fit a model to these data. b. If games continue to sell at this rate, how many games will sell in 2015? Round to the nearest thousand.

Special Rounding Instructions When you perform logistic regression, round the r value to three decimal places and the other parameters to two decimal places. Round all answers to two decimal places unless other-wise indicated. An Epidemic In a city of half a million, there are initially 800 cases of a particularly virulent strain of flu. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta claims that the cumulative number of infections with this flu strain will increase by 40 per week if there are no limiting factors. Make a logistic model of the potential cumulative number of cases of flu as a function of weeks from initial outbreak, and determine how long it will be before 100, 000 people are infected.
Growth Rate Versus Weight Ecologists have studied how a populations intrinsic exponential growth rate r is related to the body weight W for herbivorous mammals. In table 5.2, W is the adult weight measured in pounds, and r is growth rate per year.

Our green energy campaign includes efforts to get local residents to exchange their incandescent bulbs fur fluorescent bulbs. Initially 200 households make the change. Market studies suggest that, in the absence of limiting factors, we could increase that number by 25 each month. In our target area, there are 250,000 households, which we take as the limiting value. Make a logistic model that gives the number of households converting to fluorescent bulbs after t months.
