In 1774, Captain James Cook left 10 rabbits on a small Pacific island. The rabbit population is approximated by P(t) = 2000 1 + e5.30.4t with t measured in years since 1774. Using a calculator or computer: (a) Graph P. Does the population level off? (b) Estimate when the rabbit population grew most rapidly. How large was the population at that time?
