4.8 A new politician in an island campaigns to inform people about himself and his vision for the 1 million people living on the island. His work results in the assumption that the rate in the number of people 𝑝 who have heard of him and his policies is directly proportional to the number of people (1 − 𝑝) who have not heard of him and his policies. At the start of the campaign no one has heard of him, but after one year on the trail 0.5 million people have heard of him.
How many would have heard of the politician after two years of the campaign?
