Concept explainers
The rabbits rest. Suppose we have a pair of baby rabbits-one male and one female. As before, the rabbits cannot reproduce until they are one month old. Once they start reproducing, they produce a pair of bunnies (one of each sex) each month. Now, however, let us assume that each pair dies after three months, immediately after giving birth. Create a chart showing how many pairs we have after each month from the start through month nine.
