Question: Problems 1 and 2 deal with the predatorprey system that corresponds to Fig. 9.3.1. Separate the variables in the quotient of the two equations in

Problems 1 and 2 deal with the predator–prey system

dx dt dy dt 200x - 4xy, -150y + 2xy (1)

that corresponds to Fig. 9.3.1.

Separate the variables in the quotient

of the two equations in (1), and thereby derive the exact implicit solution

of the system. Use the contour plot facility of a graphing calculator or computer system to plot the contour curves of this equation through the points (75 , 100), (75 , 150), (75 , 200), (75 , 250),  and (75 , 300),in the xy-plane. Are your results consistent with Fig. 9.3.1?
