The population of a culture of bacteria has a growth rate given by \( \mathrm{p}^{\prime}(\mathrm{t})=\frac{230}{(\mathrm{t}+1)^{r}} \) bacteria per hour, for \( \mathrm{t} \geq 0 \), where \( \mathrm{r}>1 \) is a real number. The increase in the population over the time interval \( [0, t] \) is given by \( \int_{0}^{t} \mathrm{p}^{\prime}(\mathrm{s}) \mathrm{ds} \). (Note that the growth rate decreases in time, reflecting the competition for food and space.) Complete steps (a) through (e) below. a. Using the population model with \( \mathrm{r}=2 \), what is the increase in the population over the time interval \( 0 \leq t \leq 2 \) ? The increase in the population over the given interval is approximately \( \square \) bacteria. (Round down to the nearest integer as needed.)
