The population of a community is known to increase at a rate proportional to the number of people present at time t. The initial population P, has doubled in 5 years. Suppose it is known that the population is 8,000 after 3 years. What was the initial population Po? (Round your answer to one decimal place.) Po=[ What will be the population in 10 years? (Round your answer to the nearest person.) persons How fast is the population growing at t= 10? (Round your answer to the nearest person.) persons/year
