The logistic equation for the population (in thousands) of a certain species is given by .
猞 Sketch the direction field by using either a computer software package or the method of isoclines.
猞 If the initial population is 3000 [that is, p(0) = 3], what can you say about the limiting population?
猞 If , what is ?
猞 Can a population of 2000 ever decline to 800?
In Problems 21鈥26, solve the initial value problem
In Problems 9鈥20, determine whether the equation is exact.
If it is, then solve it.
Mixing.Suppose a brine containing 0.2 kg of salt per liter runs into a tank initially filled with 500 L of water containing 5 kg of salt. The brine enters the tank at a rate of 5 L/min. The mixture, kept uniform by stirring, is flowing out at the rate of 5 L/min (see Figure 2.6).

(a)Find the concentration, in kilograms per liter, of salt in the tank after 10 min. [Hint:LetAdenote the number of kilograms of salt in the tank attminutes after the process begins and use the fact that
rate of increase inA=rate of input- rate of exit.
A further discussion of mixing problems is given in Section 3.2.]
(b)After 10 min, a leak develops in the tank and an additional liter per minute of mixture flows out of the tank (see Figure 2.7). What will be the concentration, in kilograms per liter, of salt in the tank 20 min after the leak develops? [Hint:Use the method discussed in Problems 31 and 32.]
