about
Use the intersect feature to find the value of for which the model reaches half its carrying capacity.
Recall that the general form of a logistic equation for a population is given by such that the initial population at time is Show algebraically that
Working with the left side of the equation, we see that it can be rewritten as
Working with the right side of the equation we show that it can also be rewritten as But first note that when Therefore,
