Using MATLAB create a code to solve the problem. Do not use SYMS.

**Problem 9: Population Dynamics**

The populations of two species of animals are described by the nonlinear system of first-order differential equations:

\[
\frac{dx}{dt} = k_1 x (\alpha - x)
\]

\[
\frac{dy}{dt} = k_2 xy
\]

- **\(x\)** and **\(y\)** represent the population sizes of the two species.
- **\(t\)** is time.
- **\(k_1\)** and **\(k_2\)** are constant growth rates.
- **\(\alpha\)** is a constant representing the carrying capacity of the environment for species \(x\).

**Task:** Solve for \(x\) and \(y\) in terms of \(t\).
