Try either

In[1]:=
soln = DSolve[B'[t] == (10 - B - T) B, B[t], t]
b[t_] = B[t] /. soln[[1]]

Out[1]=
\!\({{B[t] -> t\ \((10\ B - B\^2 - B\ T)\) + C[1]}}\)

Out[1]=
\!\(t\ \((10\ B - B\^2 - B\ T)\) + C[1]\)

or,

In[2]:=
soln = DSolve[B'[t] == (10 - B - T) B, B, t]
B[t_] = B[t] /. soln[[1]]


Out[2]=
\!\({{B -> \((C[1] + \((10\ B - B\^2 - B\ T)\)\ #1 &)\)}}\)

Out[3]=
\!\(t\ \((10\ B - B\^2 - B\ T)\) + C[1]\)

See section 3.5.10 in the Mathematica book for the difference between asking
DSolve to return B or B[t].

Hope that helps.
