Question
Can somebody give me the rules on how to classify the equilibrium points?
5.
a. Find all three equilibrium points of the preditor-prey system:
a' = x(2 – 2x -y)
y = y(-2+4x)
answer: (0,0), (1,0), (, 1)
b. If r(0) = 3, y(0) = 0 what does r(t) tend to as t+ oo?
answer: When y = 0, r 1.
c. Only one equilibrium point has both r and y greater than zero.
Classify it as a sink, source, saddle, spiral sink, spiral source or
center.
answer: (G, 1) is spiral sink.
