A population of lemmings doubles
every 10 days. If there are initially 6
lemmings how many will there be in 60
days?

Expert Solution

Hello,

Basing on the above information,the following answer is given:

Lemmings at the initial stage = 6

Lemmings double for every 10days.

No.of Days = 60

No.of times Lemmings increase = No.of Days / Lemmings double for every 10days

= 60 / 10

= 6 Times.

No.of Lemmings to be there in 60 Days = Lemmings at the initial stage * No.of times Lemmings increase

= 6 * 6

= 36 Lemmings

Thank You.....

A population, obeying the logistic equation, begins with 1000 bacteria, then doubles itself in 10 hours. The population is observed eventually to stabilize at 20,000 bacteria. Find the number of bacteria present after 25 hours and the time it takes the population to reach one-half of its carrying capacity. Please show all work and steps clearly so I can follow your logic and learn to solve similar ones myself. I will rate your answer for you and provide positive feedback....
