Von Bertalanffy Growth Model The von Bertalanffy growth model is used to predict the length of commercial fish. The model is described by the differential equation

d x d t = k ( L − x )

where x(t ) is the length of the fish at time t, k is a positive constant called the von Bertalanffy growth rate, and L is the maximum length of the fish.

  1. a. Find x(t ) given that the length of the fish at t = 0 is x0.
  2. b. At the time the larvae hatch, the North Sea haddock are about 0.4 cm long, and the average haddock grows to a length of 10 cm after 1 year. Find an expression for the length of the North Sea haddock at time t.
  3. c. Plot the graph of x. Take L = 100 (cm).
  4. d. On average, the haddock that are caught today are between 40 cm and 60 cm long. What are the ages of the haddock that are caught?
