Interpretation:
The equation
Concept Introduction:
For the given equation, agraph is to be plotted with the vector field on the real line.
All the fixed points are to be found. Fixed points are the points where
When the vector field plotted on the real lines flows towards the fixed points, they are called stable points or attractors or sink.
When the vector field plotted on the real lines flows away from the fixed points, they are called unstable points.
