You have 1000 bugs in a bottle. It is known that the bug population is given by the logistic model with a birth rate per capita of 20% per week. After a very long time, you found that the bug population had attained an equilibrium value of 5000. You then started an experiment with an antibiotic which killed E bugs per week, where E is a positive integer. After another very long time, you found that the bug population had attained another equilibrium value of 3000. Then the value of the positive integer E is
