The number of birds of a certain species in a forested region is recorded over several years. At time t years, the number of birds is N, where N is treated as a continuous variable.
The variation in the number of birds is modelled by dN dt=N(1800-N)3600. It is given that N=300 when t=0.

Find an expression for N in terms of t.

The number of birds of a certain species in a forested region is recorded over several years. At time t years, the number of birds is N, where N is treated as a continuous variable.
The variation in the number of birds is modelled by dN dt=N(1800-N)3600. It is given that N=300 when t=0.

According to the model, how many birds will there be after a long time?
