I cant figure out the S value for the Raleigh or the Wake county population. My r(growth rate)=.03, y0 (initial pop)=40 (in thousands so 40k). If someone can tell me what the formula is that includes r, y0, AND K (carrying capacity) that would be very helpful, and how to use the solver tool in excel. thanks.

My Raleigh chart info is as follows:
years since 1900/population in thousands
20/24.4
30/37.3
40/46.8
50/65.6
60/93.9
70/122
80/150
90/212

to get the s value of the population you need to give the professor a bj and hope for the best
