9 Answer parts (ii) and (iii) of this question on the Insert provided. The bat population of a colony is being investigated and data are collected of the estimated number of bats in the colony at the beginning of each year. It is thought that the population may be modelled by the formula $$P = P _ { 0 } \mathrm { e } ^ { k t }$$ where \(P _ { 0 }\) and \(k\) are constants, \(P\) is the number of bats and \(t\) is the number of years after the start of the collection of data.
  1. Explain why a graph of \(\ln P\) against \(t\) should give a straight line. State the gradient and intercept of this line.
  2. The data collected are as follows.
    Time \(( t\) years \()\)01234
    Number of bats, \(P\)100170300340360
    Using the first three pairs of data in the table, plot \(\ln P\) against \(t\) on the axes given on the Insert, and hence estimate values for \(P _ { 0 }\) and \(k\).
    (Work to three significant figures.) This model assumes exponential growth, and assumes that once born a bat does not die, continuing to reproduce. This is unrealistic and so a second model is proposed with formula $$P = 150 \arctan ( t - 1 ) + 170$$ (You are reminded that arctan values should be given in radians.)
  3. Plot on a single graph on the Insert the curves \(P = P _ { 0 } \mathrm { e } ^ { k t }\) for your values of \(P _ { 0 }\) and \(k\) and \(P = 150 \arctan ( t - 1 ) + 170\). The data pairs in the table above have been plotted for you.
