Population of anEndangered Species Often environmentalists capture an endangered species and transport the species to a controlled environment where the species can produce offspring and regenerate its population. Suppose that six American bald eagles are captured, transported to Montana, and set free. Based on experience, the environmentalists expect the population to grow according to the model
where t is measured in years.
Determine the carrying capacity of the environment.
What is the growth rate of the bald eagle?
What is the population after 3 years?
When will the population be 300 eagles?
How long does it take for the population to reach one-half the carrying capacity?

- Let ä(t) = (3,-2,-5)t + (7,−1, 2) and (u) = (5,0, 3)u + (−3,−9,3). Find the acute angle (in degrees) between the lines:arrow_forwardA tank initially contains 50 gal of pure water. Brine containing 3 lb of salt per gallon enters the tank at 2 gal/min, and the (perfectly mixed) solution leaves the tank at 3 gal/min. Thus, the tank is empty after exactly 50 min. (a) Find the amount of salt in the tank after t minutes. (b) What is the maximum amount of salt ever in the tank?arrow_forwardpleasd dont use chat gptarrow_forward
