Question 143983: Tutors, please please help me solve the below word problem. :( THANK YOU!!
A model for the number of people N in a college community who have heard a rumor is given by the equation:

where P is the total population of the community and d is the number of days elapsed since the rumor began. If the number of students is 1,000 find the number of days when 500 students would have heard the rumor
