- Draw the phase diagram of the system; list all the equilibrium points; determine the stability of the equilibrium points; and describe the outcome of the system from various initial points. You should consider all four quadrants of the xy-plane. All the following must be included, correct and clearly annotated in your phase diagram: The coordinate axes; all the isoclines; all the equilibrium points; the allowed directions of motion (both vertical and horizontal) in all the regions into which the isoclines divide the xy plane; direction of motion along isoclines, where applicable; examples of allowed trajectories in all regions and examples of trajectories crossing from a region to another, whenever such a crossing is possible.arrow_forwardDraw the phase diagram of the system; list all the equilibrium points; determine the stability of the equilibrium points; and describe the outcome of the system from various initial points.

The curve shown in the figure represents the plane's height y (in 1000 ft) versus the time t (in sec). a. For each ordered pair, substitute the t and y values into the model y = at2 + bt + c to form a linear equation with three unknowns a, b, and c. Together, these form a system of three linear equations with three unknowns. b. Use a graphing utility to solve for a, b, and c. c. Substitute the known values of a, b, and c into the model y = at2 + bt + c. d. Determine the vertex of the parabola. e. Determine the focal length of the parabola.

A particular rocket taking off from the Earth's surface uses fuel at a constant rate of 12.5 gallons per minute. The rocket initially contains 225 gallons of fuel. (b) Below is a general sketch of what the graph of your model should look like. Using your calculator, determine the x and y intercepts of this model and label them on the graph at points A and B respectively. (a) Determine a linear model, in y= ax + b form, for the amount of fuel the rocket has remaining, y, as a function of the number of minutes, x. (c) The rocket must still contain 50 gallons of fuel when it hits the stratosphere. What is the maximum number of minutes the rocket can take to hit the stratosphere? Show this point on your graph by also graphing the horizontal line y= 50 and showing the intersection point.arrow_forwardDenote the owl and wood rat populations at time k by xk Ok Rk and R is the number of rats (in thousands).
