Homework Statement
Sorry about the title; I accidentally hit enter instead of 'Shift'. It should read Logistic Modeling -- help integrating/solving for P
If P(0)=2, find P(90).
Homework Equations
dP/dt=1/900P(9-P)
The Attempt at a Solution
my solution looks like:
dP/(P(9-P))=1/900dt (seperable diff eq.)
1/9(ln(P)(9-P))=1/900 t+C (partial fractions and property ln M + ln N = ln MN)
lnP(9-P) = 1/100t+9C
P(9-P)= Ce^(1/100t) (exponentiated; 9C=C)
kinda stuck here (and I don't see how P ever stops growing.)
