Lb osyshic Cromtia 2. The carrying capacity for deer in a particular small town is 2,200, and the rate of increase in their numbers is proportional to both the number, n, of deer and 2,200 ~n. If there were 1,000 deer one month ago and 1,150 deer now, how ‘many months will it take the deer to number 2,100? 17. Guppy Population 2000-gallon tank can support no ‘more than 150 guppies.
