(a) (4 pts) Find all the equilibria and determine their stability using the stability condition.
(b) (2 pts) Draw the phase plot f(V) versus V where f(V) = V'. You may find it helpful to use Desmos or Wolfram Alpha to plot the graph of
f(V) versus V (both are free to use online), or you can plot it by hand if you like. On the plot identify each equilibrium as stable or unstable.
(c) (4 pts) Draw direction arrows for the case where the tumour starts at size 3cm³ and for the case where the tumour starts at size 9cm³. Explain
in biological terms what happens to the size of each of these tumours at time progresses.
For the system consisting of the two planes:plane 1: -x + y + z = 0plane 2: 3x + y + 3z = 0a) Are the planes parallel and/or coincident? Justify your answer. What does this tell you about the solution to the system?b) Solve the system (if possible). Show a complete solution. If there is a line of intersection express it in parametric form.
