a. Plot the population growth rate function corresponding to the death rate and birth rate functions above. b. Find the Steady state consumption levels and population levels for this economy. c. Thomas Malthus had a very pessimistic view of the conditions of the human race in that he believed that any increase in the living standard due to a sudden decrease in the population would be temporary. This is indeed the prediction of the Malthus model we studied in class. Does the version of the Malthus Model in this question make the same prediction? Use graphs in your answer.
