Starting information is that we have an initial population of 50 and the lambda for this population is 1 .43, which essentially means that for every cycle, or in this case year, is the length of time we're told, you have a 140 % increase.
00:26
Essentially, we're seeing an increase of 43 % per year in this population.
00:33
So utilizing this information, we can guesstimate what the population should look like over time.
00:42
So we're starting with our initial population, so population, you know, starting at 0, there's 50.
00:50
But then after one year, we can calculate this by taking that previous number, 50, and multiplying it by our lambda of 1 .43.
01:01
When you do that, you end up with 71 .5.
01:04
So after one year, you would expect about 71, 72 individuals in the population.
01:11
So after two years, again, we can calculate how many we guess there are, how many there should be, by taking the previous number, 71 .5, and multiplying it by lambda, 1 .43.
01:25
This time we get a number of 102 .25.
01:30
And then we can just continue this trend for as long as we want, calculating how many we expect to see after each year...
