Sunset Lake is stocked with 2600 rainbow trout and after 1 year the population has grown to 7000. Assuming logistic growth with a carrying capacity of 26000, find the growth constant k, and determine when the population will increase to 13700. k= yr-1 The population will increase to 13700 after years.
