By changing the parameter, the fixed points move towards each other, collide and mutually annihilate is known as saddle-node bifurcation.
The stabilities of the fixed points interchanged by changing the parameter is known as transcritical bifurcation.
When the single stable fixed point is present and it turns to an unstable fixed point due to change in parameter and two new symmetric stable fixed points occurs is called supercritical pitchfork bifurcation.
When the single unstable fixed point is present and it turns to a stable point due to change in parameter and two new symmetric unstable fixed points occurs is called subcritical pitchfork bifurcation.

- Q2. Government of Canada is designing Registered Retirement Saving Plans (RRSP) for Canadians. According to statistics Canada, the life expectancy in Canada is 86 years with standard deviation of 4.8 years. a) Find the z-score of a person who is 90 years old? b) Find the age of a person whose z-score is -1.4? c) What percent of people age higher than 80? d) What percent of people age less than 83? e) What percent of people age between 85 and 88?arrow_forwardb pleasearrow_forward(b) Let I[y] be a functional of y(x) defined by [[y] = √(x²y' + 2xyy' + 2xy + y²) dr, subject to boundary conditions y(0) = 0, y(1) = 1. State the Euler-Lagrange equation for finding extreme values of I [y] for this prob- lem. Explain why the function y(x) = x is an extremal, and for this function, show that I = 2. Without doing further calculations, give the values of I for the functions y(x) = x² and y(x) = x³.arrow_forward
- Definition: A topology on a set X is a collection T of subsets of X having the following properties. (1) Both the empty set and X itself are elements of T. (2) The union of an arbitrary collection of elements of T is an element of T. (3) The intersection of a finite number of elements of T is an element of T. A set X with a specified topology T is called a topological space. The subsets of X that are members of are called the open sets of the topological space.arrow_forward2) Prove that for all integers n > 1. dn 1 (2n)! 1 = dxn 1 - Ꮖ 4 n!
