Step by step solution

01

Find the critical point

Here the equation is:

dxdt=(x-1)(y-1)dydt=y(y-1)

If y=0 then x=1.

And in (2) (y≠0) the y=1,

This is satisfied for all numbers x. So, all points are of the form (x, 1). So, the critical point is (1, 0),(x,1).

02

Find the value of y

Here,

dydx=yx-1

Solve this by variable separating.

Y=C(x-1).

Now implied that x-1≠0so that could have it in the denominator. The solution x=1 makes the system.

dxdt=0dydx=y(y-1)

This curve x=1 is also a solution of the system because when we differentiate it by t so,dxdt=0.so the value of y is y=C(x-1) or x=1.

03

Solve for points (3,2)

The solution that starts at (3, 2) is above the lines of critical points (x, 1) and it is also right of the x=1. that means that the corresponding trajectory is of the form y=C(x-1). So put x=3, y=2 then C=1.

So, the trajectory line is y=x-1.

So, the system is for y=1.

dxdt>0dydx>0

So, the solution along the trajectory starting at (3,2) is increasing and therefore going to infinity ast→∞.

04

Evaluate for point (2,12)

Put x=1 and y=1/2 then C=1/2.

The trajectory of this solution is y=x-12.

Since one is below the line y=1 line and above y=0 line that y-1<0 and y>0. So,

dxdt<0dydx<0

That means the trajectory decreases until it hits the critical point (1,0).

05

Solve for point (-2,12).

Put x=-2, y=1/2 then C=-1/6.

The trajectory of this solution is y=-x-16.

Since one is below the line y=1 line and above y=0 line that y-1<0 and y>0. So,

dxdt>0dydx<0

That means the trajectory increases along the x-axis and decreases along the y-axis until it hits the critical point (1,0).

06

Determine the value for point (3,-2).

Put x = 3, y = -2 then C = -1.

The trajectory of this solution is y=-(x-1).

Thus, one is below the line y=1 line and above y = 0 line that y -1 < 0 and y > 0. So,

dxdt<0dydx>0

That means the trajectory decreases along the x-axis and increases along the y-axis until it hits the critical point (1,0).

Arms Race. A simplified mathematical model for an arms race between two countries whose expenditures for defense are expressed by the variables x(t) and y(t) is given by the linear system

dxdt=2y-x+a;    x0=1,dydt=4x-3y+b;   y0=4,

Where a and b are constants that measure the trust (or distrust) each country has for the other. Determine whether there is going to be disarmament (x and y approach 0 as t increases), a stabilized arms race (x and y approach a constant ast→+∞ ), or a runaway arms race (x and y approach+∞ as t→+∞).

In Problems 3 – 18, use the elimination method to find a general solution for the given linear system, where differentiation is with respect to t.
