It is known that there are 10000 cods in Koorsala, and that the cod population there obeys the logistic model with harvesting. The per capita birth rate of these cods is 14% per year. The people of Koorsala has been catching 400 cods per year for a long time. One year, some advanced fishing equipment is introduced, which increases the harvesting rate to 550 cods per year. Assuming that the Koorsala people carry on with this increased harvesting rate, what will the size of the cod population be in the long run? Give your answer correct to the nearest integer.

After 22 years the growth percentage cod population will be stable at 14% as per the working given below:

A population initially consists of 1 million healthy members and 10000 infected members, The rate of infection is 25% and the rate of decease of the infected is also 25%. Assume that those who do not decease will recover, but may become infected again(like a heavy flu epidemic). Apply the mathematical model describing the population distribution to calculate the healthy and infected population distribution after 10 years.
