We Modeled Populations of Aphids and Ladybugs with a Lotka-Volterra $$\frac { d A } { d t } = 2 A ( 1 - 0.0005 A ) - 0.01 A L$$

question 144

Short Answer

We modeled populations of aphids and ladybugs with a Lotka-Volterra system. Suppose we modify those equations as follows:
$$\frac { d A } { d t } = 2 A ( 1 - 0.0005 A ) - 0.01 A L$$
$$\frac { d L } { d t } = - 0.6 L + 0.0005 A L$$
Find the equilibrium solution.
