A field currently holds 20 tulips. The number of tulips will grow by 70% each year. The field can only sustain 300 plants. Use th logistic growth model to predict the population in the next 3 years.
Suppose that a population grows according to a logistic model with carrying capacity 6500 and k = 0.0015 per year. If the initial population is 1000, write a formula for the population after t years.
