(a)

\

The logistic differential equation (4) : \"\".

\

\"\"

\

Implicitly differentiate with respect to \"\".

\

\"\"

\

Substitute \"\" in the above equation.

\

(b)

\

The population will be growing fastest when \"\" reaches to maximum.

\

To find the maximum value equate \"\" to zero.

\

\"\"

\

\"\"\"\" and \"\".

\

\"\"\"\" and \"\".

\

\"\", \"\" and \"\".

\

\"\", \"\" population never grows.

\

\"\"

\

\

So population is growing fastest when it reaches half its carrying capacity.
