A herd of American buffalo (bison) can be modeled by a stage matrix similar to that for the spotted owls. The females can be divided into calves (up to 1 year old), yearlings (1 to 2 years), and adults. Suppose an average of 42 female calves are born each year per 100 adult females. (Only adults produce offspring. Each year, about 60$\%$ of the calves survive, 75$\%$ of the yearlings survive, and 95$\%$ of the adults survive. For $k \geq 0,$ let $\mathbf{x}_{k}=\left(c_{k}, y_{k}, a_{k}\right),$ where the entries in $\mathbf{x}_{k}$ are the numbers of females in each life stage at year $k .$a. Construct the stage-matrix $A$ for the buffalo herd, such that $\mathbf{x}_{k+1}=A \mathbf{x}_{k}$ for $k \geq 0$b. [M] Show that the buffalo herd is growing, determine the expected growth rate after many years, and give the expected numbers of calves and yearlings present per 100 adults.
For each 100 adults, there will be approximately 38 calves and 21 yearlings.

so I just want to buy this m n plus one de endless one. It's a job 151 in Yemen Judo 0.51 I mean bless judo point for again. This is minus 0.5 And when lesson 1.5 do you no to be And plus one is minus 0.5 Eman Bliss No comparing this on this 1.5 Do you no person be if you start with animals? Line toe So, Eman, are you intelligent on beat And no more of Daves in big me lettuce Five blocks So the endless one equal toe minus 0.5 and renders is true Italian plus 1.5 in group AIPAC's No solving this this is D emplacement subject 100 So this is so This is the number of deer factor one year and number off M n plus one Just give it Judah 0.51 I m in bless 0.40. So this is do 2.51 into 2000 less Jiro 0.4 live next. So if you want to play this digital digital gentle going to so this is one 0 to 0. And plus this is who lives. So find it. My nemesis. Good. Judo 10 So this must that would be line.
