Consider a species of bird that can be split into three age groupings: those aged 0-1 years, those aged 1-2 years, and those aged 2-3 years. The population is observed once a year. Given that the Leslie matrix is equal to

hello your question lacks some information attached below is the complete question

answer :

a) attached below

b) 65 students aged 1-2 years

Step-by-step explanation:

For a Leslie matrix ; there is a relation

Pn = L^n Po  where ; Pn = population vector after n years , Po = initial population vector .

a) Initial population vector

attached below

b) Number of birds aged 1-2 years are available after 10 years

i.e. P10 = L^10 Po

note : Po = Xo

∴ P10 =  

we will apply  MATLAB to resolve the above matrix

P10  =

∴ Number of children between 1-2 years left after 10 years  = 65.24 ≈ 65
