Question 415817: P=1500sqrt(t)+Po...population is 10,000. What the steps to solving this kind of problem?
ex.T=0(2010)Po=? etc.

The initial population is Po. This problem describes the equation for the growth of a poplulation as a function of time.
I assume the initial population is 10,000?
Then the equation reads .
I assume the problem is asking for the time, t, at which the population reaches a particular value, P? If so, then we need to solve for t:
. Inserting the value given for P and squaring both sides gives us the answer.
