Lecture 7 : Population Growth model (questions)

[@freydjadourfalenas3751]

I think in problem 4, the constant should be 0.12, therefore
t = 0.693/0.12 = 5.775
because k represents the changing constant which represents Mt-Mo or dM, not Mt/Mo

Seems, the model in the problem 2 does not fit well with this way of calculating 'k'. If you check its prediction after 1 month, you will get 3260, while it should predict 3250, shouldn't it? With k=ln(3250/3000)=0.08 it fits the initial conditions better.

For problem 4, if growth rate is 12%, how can doubling time be less than a year?

[@piderise4348]

this is wrong, if the growth rate is 12%, then the time should be 1.12^t=2, how is this related to EP growth in anykind of scene!...
