I have parts a and b completed but was still needing some clarification on if I did them correctly. So help on parts a through d would be very helpful thanks!
![**Cooperating Species Model**
Consider a cooperating species model:
\[
\begin{aligned}
\frac{dx}{dt} &= x(1 - x) + \beta xy \\
\frac{dy}{dt} &= y(1 - y) + \beta xy,
\end{aligned}
\]
where the species interact weakly, say \(\beta = \frac{1}{2}\).
1. **Find the \(x\) and \(y\)-nullclines for this system.**
2. **Find all equilibrium points for this system.**
3. **Sketch the phase plane for this system.**
4. **If the initial populations are given by \(x(0) = 2.4\) and \(y(0) = 0.3\), what happens to the two populations as \(t \to \infty\)?**
---
For visual aids such as graphs or diagrams:
- **Nullclines**:
- The \(x\)-nullcline is found where \(\frac{dx}{dt} = 0\).
- The \(y\)-nullcline is found where \(\frac{dy}{dt} = 0\).
- **Equilibrium Points**:
- These are the points where both \(\frac{dx}{dt} = 0\) and \(\frac{dy}{dt} = 0\).
- **Phase Plane**:
- A sketch showing trajectories of the system in the \(xy\)-plane, illustrating the behavior of the system over time.
**Note**: Include the phase plane sketch and specific calculations if available for clarity.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fe39b72c6-6c1d-4e20-8eee-b58971cb1bcd%2F162a4282-7f5b-44e2-ba35-8e6a559d64a8%2Fwtj096r_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
