On January 1, 1879, Records Show That 500 of a Fish

Question 53

Multiple Choice

On January 1, 1879, records show that 500 of a fish called Atlantic striped bass were introduced into the San Francisco Bay. In 1899, the first year fishing for bass was allowed, 100,000 of these bass were caught, representing 10% of the population at the start of 1899. Owing to reproduction, at any moment in time the bass population is growing at a rate proportional to the population at that moment. Write a differential equation satisfied by B(t) , the number of Atlantic striped bass a time t, where t is in years since January 1, 1879 and 0 \le t < 20 and solve it for B(t) .
