When predicting population growth, demographers must consider birth and death rates as well as the net change

Question:

When predicting population growth, demographers must consider birth and death rates as well as the net change caused by the difference between the rates of immigration and emigration. Let P be the population at time t and let N be the net increase per unit time resulting from the difference between immigration and emigration. So, the rate of growth of the population is given by

where N is constant. Solve this differential equation to find P as a function of time, when at time t = 0 the size of the population is P0.
