5. The population of certain small organism grows according to the model: dy/dt = 5y where y=20 when t=0
t is measured in months. a) Construct the specific function for y. b) Find how many in the population of this organism after 8 months. c) Determine how many months until there are 228 of this organism. Round to the nearest 0.1
PART(a):
The given DE is,
integrating on both sides,
where A is an integration const.
To find A, we have y(0) = 20,
Now the final solution becomes,
PART(b):
put t = 8,
PART(c):
put y(t) = 228,
rounding off to 1 decimal
I hope this answer helps,
Thanks,
