= Solution

Substitution gives $(g\tilde n)'=-(\mu+r)\tilde n$, hence
$$
\tilde n(s)=\frac{C}{g(s)}\exp\left[-\int_0^s\frac{\mu(u)+r}{g(u)}du\right].
$$
The <boundary condition> yields the Euler-Lotka equation
$$
\boxed{1=\int_0^\infty\frac{b(s)}{g(s)}\exp\left[-\int_0^s\frac{\mu(u)+r}{g(u)}du\right]ds.}
$$
