Homework Statement
Determine the solution to the initial value differential equation: y'=0.0016 y (1800 − y), y(0)=66
Homework Equations
Getting x's on one side and y's on the other and integrating. Then solve for c
The Attempt at a Solution
I'm in calc 2 and this is the first time we are really being introduced to differentials so I put all the y's and dy on the same side and ended up with 0.347222ln(y)-0.347222ln(y-1800)=x+c.
The y integration I did on wolfram because I was unsure how to proceed so it migh be wrong. When I try to solve for y, I get a negative in the natural log which I can't do, although there must be an answer. Please help!
