A stable population of 35,000 birds lives on three islands. Each year 10% of the population on island A migrates to island B, 20% of the population on island B migrates to island C, and 5% of the population on island C migrates to island A. Find the number of birds on each island if the population count on each island does not vary from year to year.
Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
