Controlling a population The fish and game department in a certain state is planning to issue hunting permits to control the deer population (one deer per permit). It is known that if the deer population falls below a certain level m, the deer will become extinct. It is also known that if the deer population rises above the carrying capacity M, the population will decrease back to M through disease and malnutrition.
a. Discuss the reasonableness of the following model for the growth rate of the deer population as a function of time:
dP/dt=rP(M−P)(P−m)
where P is the population of the deer and r is a positive constant of proportionality. Include a phase line.
b. Explain how this model differs from the logistic model dP/dt=rP(M−P). Is it better or worse than the logistic model?
c. Show that if P>M for all t, then limt→∞P(t)=M
d. What happens if P
e. Discuss the solutions to the differential equation. What are the equilibrium points of the model? Explain the dependence of the steady-state value of P on the initial values of P.

Follow these steps using the algebra tiles to solve the equation −5x + (−2) = −2x + 4. 1. add 5 positive x-tiles to both sides and create zero pairs. 2. add 4 negative unit tiles to both sides and create zero pairs. 3. divide the unit tiles evenly among the x-tiles. x =
