5. The population of a certain country is known to increase at a rate proportional fo the number of people presently living in the country. If after two years the population has doubled, and after three years the population is 20,000, find the number of people initially living in the country. 6. In a certain culture of bacteria, the rate of increase is proportional to the number present. (a) If it is found that the number doubles in 6 hrs, how many may be expected at the end of 18 hrs? (b) If there are 102 at the end of 4 hrs, and 8 x 102 at the end of 8 hrs, how many were there in the beginning? Brino
