Step 1 :
\(a)
\The logistic growth model of bacterium after
hours is
grams.
The carrying capacity of the environment can be find out by substituting
in logistic growth model.

The carrying capacity of the environment is
grams.
Solution :
\The carrying capacity of the environment is
grams.
Step 1 :
\(b)
\The standard logistic growth model of population after
hours is
.
The logistic growth model of bacterium after
hours is
grams.
Compare the logistic model with standard logistic model
and
.
The growth rate is for standard logistic model is
.
Therefore the growth rate of the bacteria is
per hour.
Solution :
\The growth rate of the bacteria is
per hour.
Step 1 :
\(c)
\The logistic growth model of bacterium after
hours is
grams.
The initial population size can be find out by substituting
in logistic growth model.

Solution :
\The initial population size of bacteria is
grams.
Step 1 :
\(d)
\The logistic growth model of bacterium after
hours is
grams.
The population size after
hours can be find out by substituting
in logistic growth model.

Solution :
\The population size after
hours is
grams.
Step 1 :
\(e)
\The logistic growth model of bacterium after
hours is
grams.
The time when population size reaches
grams can be find out by substituting
in logistic growth model.

Solution :
\The population size of bacteria is
grams after
hours.
Step 1 :
\(f)
\The logistic growth model of bacterium after
hours is
grams.
The carrying capacity of the environment is
grams.
One-half the carrying capacity means
grams.
The time when population size reaches
grams can be find out by substituting
in logistic growth model.

Solution :
\The population size of bacteria reaches one-half the carrying capacity after
hours.
