Consider a population of chipmunks which satisfies the logistic equation: P'(t)=P(M-P) in which M is a constant representing the amount of food available to the chipmunks. If you begin with P(0) = 10 chipmunks, what is the minimum amount of food you must provide to ensure that the population will grow? (Hint: use a phase diagram.)
