U.S. Population The Museum of Science in Boston displays a running total of the U.S. population. On May 11,1993.11, 1993. the toxal was increasing at the rate of 11 person every 1414 sec. The displayed population figure at 3:453:45 P.M. that day was 257,313,431257,313,431. Assume that the relative growth rate is constant.
What is the relative growth rate per year ( 365365 days)?

The problem asked to find the relative growth rate per year (365 days)(365 \text{ days}) kk using the differential equation for population

dPdt=kP\dfrac{dP}{dt}= kP

where dPdt\dfrac{dP}{dt} is the total increase at the rate of 11 person every 1414 seconds and the total displayed population that day was P=257,313,431P = 257,313,431.
