Consider the following systems of rate of change equations:System A(dx/dt)= 3x(1-(x/10))- 20xy(dy/dt)= -5y+(xy/20)System B(dx/dt
)= 0.3x-(xy/100)(dy/dt)= 15y(1-(y/17))+25xyIn both of these systems, x and y refer to the number of two different species at time t. In particular, in one of these systems the prey are large animals and the predators are small animals, such as piranhas and humans. Thus it takes many predators to eat one prey, but each prey eaten is a tremendous benefit for the predator population. The other system has very large predators and very small prey.
Knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is true wisdom. mastering others is strength; mastering yourself is true power. if you realize that you have enough, you are truly rich, "And the cause of not following your heart, is in spending the rest of your life wishing you had."
