Solve the given differential equation by separation of variables.
Homework Equations
dP/dt = P - P2
The Attempt at a Solution
This is no problem to "solve" except that Webassign (

You end up with
dP/(P-P2) = dt
which is not a difficult integral, but you end up with a left side: (after "e-ing" both sides) of P-P^2. How can I give this in terms of P, or am I thinking wrong? (probably the latter)
