  1. There is a population, P, of bacteria living in a Petri dish, which is known to increase at a rate proportional to the number of bacteria present at any time, t. a. What is the differential equation that models this situation? Is this equation linear? b. Find the solution to your differential equation from part (a): If the population has doubled after 10 hours, then how long will it take to triple?

c. Now assume that a the bacteria is being killed by the poison is poison is dropped into the Petri dish. The rate at which !
