QUESTION 3 The biological relationship between the growth for the fish population and the size of the fish population is g= 15S(1-S/5) where g is the growth of the fish population and S is the size of the population. The size of the harvest is a function of the amount of human effort expended b=3ES where E is the level of effort. Market price of fish per unit is $100 and a constant marginal cost of effort is $50. If we rewrite the sustainable harvest/catch level equation in telms of effort level, E, then we have bs= E E-

QUESTION 3
The biological relationship between the growth for the fish population and the size of the fish population is
where g is the growth of the fish population and S is the size of the population. The size of the harvest is a function of the amount of human
g=15S(1-S/5)
effort expended
b=3ES
where E is the level of effort. Market price of fish per unit is $100 and a constant marginal cost of effort is $50.
If we rewrite the sustainable harvest/catch level equation in terms of effort level, E, then we have b =
s
E
