Consider the coyotes–roadrunner system discussed in Example 7. Find closed formulas for c(t) and r(t), for the initial populations c0= 100, r0 = 800.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The solutions are, c(t)=300(1.1)t-200(0.9)t

r(t)=900(1.1)t-100(0.9)t

Step by step solution

01

Solving for eigenvalues

The eigenvalues of the system are λ1=1,1 and a00

λ2=0.9

The corresponding eigenvectors are

v1→=100300

And

v2→=200100

02

Solving further

So far,

x0→=3v→1+v2→

Therefore, by theorem 7.1.3, we have

x→t=3(1.1t100300-0.9t200100

The solutions are,c(t)=300(1.1)t-200(0.9)tr(t)=900(1.1)t-100(0.9)t
