The population of grasshoppers after tt weeks is P(t)=7500+3000sin⁡(πt8)P(t) = 7500 + 3000 \sin\left(\frac{\pi t}{8}\right) for 0≤t≤120 \le t \le 12. a. Find: - the initial population - the population after 5 weeks. b. What is the greatest population size over this interval and when does it occur? c. When is the population: - 9000 - 6000? d. During what time interval(s) does the population size exceed 10 000?
