The early Christian community in Antioch grew from 120 members in AD\,30 to 1\,560 members in AD\,50. Assuming logistic growth \( P(t)=\frac{K}{1+\left(\frac{K-P_0}{P_0}\right)e^{-rt}} \) with \(P_0=120\) and carrying capacity \(K\) equal to three times the population at AD\,50, (a) determine the intrinsic growth rate \(r\) (to two decimal places). (b) Using this \(r\), predict the population at AD\,60 (t=30). Round to the nearest whole number.
