Transcribed Image Text:stylus 5G
A forest has a population of wolves and a population of squirrels. Let a represent the number of wolves (in
3 corresponds NOT to an absence of wolves, but to
hundreds) above some level, denoted with 0. So x =
a population that is 300 below the designated level of wolves. Similarly, let y represent the number of squirrels
(in hundreds) above a level designated by zero. The following system models the two populations over time:
- 0.625x + y
x'
-
y' =
- x -0.625y
Solve the system using the initial conditions (0) = 0 and y(0) = 1.
x(t) =
-
y(t) =
