Biologists stocked a lake with 500 fish and estimated the carrying capacity (the maximal population for the fish of that species in that lake) to be 7300 . The number of fish tripled in the first year. (a) Assuming that the size of the fish population satisfies the logistic equation \[ \frac{d P}{d t}=k P\left(1-\frac{P}{K}\right) \] determine the constant \( k \), and then solve the equation to find an expression for the size of the population after \( t \) years. \[ k= \] \[ P(t)= \]
