- Draw the phase diagram of the system; list all the equilibrium points; determine the stability of the equilibrium points; and describe the outcome of the system from various initial points. You should consider all four quadrants of the xy-plane. All the following must be included, correct and clearly annotated in your phase diagram: The coordinate axes; all the isoclines; all the equilibrium points; the allowed directions of motion (both vertical and horizontal) in all the regions into which the isoclines divide the xy plane; direction of motion along isoclines, where applicable; examples of allowed trajectories in all regions and examples of trajectories crossing from a region to another, whenever such a crossing is possible.arrow_forwardDraw the phase diagram of the system; list all the equilibrium points; determine the stability of the equilibrium points; and describe the outcome of the system from various initial points.

For example, if R is the population of rabbits (which reproduce autocatlytically), G is the amount of grass available for rabbit food (assumed to be constant), L is the population of Lynxes that feeds on the rabbits, and D represents dead lynxes, the following equations represent the dynamic behavior of the populations of rabbits and lynxes: R+G→ 2R (1) L+R→ 2L (2) (3) Each step is irreversible since, for example, rabbits cannot turn back into grass. a) Write down the differential equations that describe how the populations of rabbits (R) and lynxes (L) change with time. b) Assuming G and all of the rate constants are unity, solve the equations for the evolution of the animal populations with time. Let the initial values of R and L be 20 and 1, respectively. Plot your results and discuss how the two populations are related.arrow_forward

A particular rocket taking off from the Earth's surface uses fuel at a constant rate of 12.5 gallons per minute. The rocket initially contains 225 gallons of fuel. (b) Below is a general sketch of what the graph of your model should look like. Using your calculator, determine the x and y intercepts of this model and label them on the graph at points A and B respectively. (a) Determine a linear model, in y= ax + b form, for the amount of fuel the rocket has remaining, y, as a function of the number of minutes, x. (c) The rocket must still contain 50 gallons of fuel when it hits the stratosphere. What is the maximum number of minutes the rocket can take to hit the stratosphere? Show this point on your graph by also graphing the horizontal line y= 50 and showing the intersection point.arrow_forwardThe table below shows the projected values (in millions of dollars) of hardback college textbooks sold in the United States for the years 2007 to 2009.

- The voltage output (y) of a battery was measured over a range of temperatures (x) from 0°C to 50°C. The following figure is a scatterplot of voltage versus temperature, with three fitted curves superimposed. The curves are the linear model y = Bo + B,x + ɛ, the quadratic model y = Bo + B;x = B2x? + ɛ, and the cubic model y = Bo + B;x + Bx? + B3x² + ɛ. Based on the plot, which of the models should be used to describe the data? Explain. The linear model. ii. The quadratic model. iii. The cubic model. iv.
