8. The logistic model for population growth in country A states that the rate of growth of
dP P
the population can be written as kP1 , where k is the proportionality
dt 10
constant, P is the size of population 9 (in millions) at time t (in years after 2001).
At the start of 2001, the population was about 8 million. It is assumed that when the
9
population is 9 million, the rate of growth of the population is .
