Consider a rabbit population​ P(t) satisfying the logistic equation StartFraction dP Over dt EndFraction equals aP minus bP squa

red ​, where Upper B equals aP is the time rate at which births occur and Upper D equals bP squared is the rate at which deaths occur. If the initial population is 220 rabbits and there are 9 births per month and 15 deaths per month occurring at time tequals​0, how many months does it take for​ P(t) to reach 110​% of the limiting population​ M?

Solution:

Given :

$\frac{dP}{dt}= aP-bP^2$         .............(1)

where, B = aP = birth rate

            D = $bP^2$  =  death rate

Now initial population at t = 0, we have

$P_0$ = 220 ,  $B_0$ = 9 ,  $D_0$ = 15

Now equation (1) can be written as :

$ \frac{dP}{dt}=P(a-bP)$

$\frac{dP}{dt}=bP(\frac{a}{b}-P)$    .................(2)

Now this equation is similar to the logistic differential equation which is ,

$\frac{dP}{dt}=kP(M-P)$

where M = limiting population / carrying capacity

This gives us M = a/b

Now we can find the value of a and b at t=0 and substitute for M

$a_0=\frac{B_0}{P_0}$    and     $b_0=\frac{D_0}{P_0^2}$

So, $M=\frac{B_0P_0}{D_0}$

          = $\frac{9 \times 220}{15}$

          = 132

Now from equation (2), we get the constants

k = b = $\frac{D_0}{P_0^2} = \frac{15}{220^2}$

        = $\frac{3}{9680}$

The population P(t) from logistic equation is calculated by :

$P(t)= \frac{MP_0}{P_0+(M-P_0)e^{-kMt}}$

$P(t)= \frac{132 \times 220}{220+(132-220)e^{-\frac{3}{9680} \times132t}}$

$P(t)= \frac{29040}{220-88e^{-\frac{396}{9680} t}}$

As per question, P(t) = 110% of M

$\frac{110}{100} \times 132= \frac{29040}{220-88e^{\frac{-396}{9680} t}}$

$ 220-88e^{\frac{-99}{2420} t}=200$

$ e^{\frac{-99}{2420} t}=\frac{5}{22}$

Now taking natural logs on both the sides we get

t = 36.216

Number of months = 36.216

The second option. Angles 2 and 6 are corresponding angles, and 6 and 7 make a linear pair, so 2 and 7 are supplementary.

The first option doesn’t even mention angle 7, the third option doesn’t mention angle 2, and the last option doesn’t mention 7 either.
