Each system of DE is a model for 2 species that either compete for the same resources or cooperate for mutual benefit. \[\frac{dx}{dt}=0.12x-0.0006x^2+0.00001xy\] \[\frac{dy}{dt}=0.08x+0.00004xy\] some info: \[\frac{dR}{dt}=kR\] k is a positive constant \[\frac{dW}{dt}=-rW\] r is a positive constant Predator-prey equations: \[\frac{dR}{dt}=kR-aRW\] \[\frac{dW}{dt}=-rW=bRW\]

not sure what the R and W refer to. are you trying to determine x(t) and y(t) ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm soo sorry R is for rabbits (pray) R(t) at time t and W is for wolves(predators) W(t) at time t

OpenStudy (anonymous):

"a" is another positive constant

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have to decide whether the system describes competition or cooperation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'll see if I can find the solution manual online

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh interesting. Well, I guess I have the answer...

OpenStudy (turingtest):

seems very simple now that I understand what they are asking lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't understand this book I'm using "Stewart's Calculus"

OpenStudy (turingtest):

I haven't read it I was doing Leibniz in Spanish and I think someone stole it :/ I gotta go eat, see ya.

OpenStudy (turingtest):

sorry I meant "Leithold"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

see ya. What? First your wallet...and now your books. Sheesh!

OpenStudy (turingtest):

eh, Mexico...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's ok. happens here too :P
