Sunset Lake is stocked with 1500 rainbow trout and after 1 year the population has grown to 3850. Assuming logistic growth with a carrying capacity of 15000, find the growth constant k, and determine when the population will increase to 7800. k = yr-1 The population will increase to 7800 after years.
