- Spawner-Recruit Model In fish management it is important to know the relationship between the abundance of the spawners also called the parent stock and the abundance of the recruitsthat is, those hatchlings surviving to maturity. According to the Ricker model, the number of recruits R as a function of the number of spawners P has the form R=APeBp for some positive constants A and B. This model describes well a phenomenon observed in some fisheries: A large spawning group can actually lead to a small group of recruits. In a study of the sockeye salmon, it was determined that A=4 and B=0.7. Here we measure P and R in thousands of salmon. a. Make a graph of R versus P for the sockeye salmon. Assume there are at most 3000 spawners. b. Find the maximum number of salmon recruits possible. c. If the number of recruits R is greater than the number of spawners P, then the difference R-P of the recruits can be removed by fishing, and next season there will once again be P spawners surviving to renew the cycle. What value of P gives the maximum value of R-P, the number of fish available for removal by fishing?arrow_forwardPopulation Growth These exercises use the population growth model. 5. FOX Population The fox population in a certain region has a relative growth rate Of8% per year. It is estimated that the population in 2013 was 18,000. (a) find a function n(t)=n0ert that models the population t years after 2013. (b) Use the function from part (a) to estimate the fox population in the year 2021. (e) After how many years will fox population reach 25,000. (d) Sketch a graph Of the fox population function for the years 2013-2021.arrow_forwardSales Growth In this exercise, we develop a model for the growth rate G, in thousands of dollars per year, in sales of the product as a function of the sales level s, in thousands of dollars. The model assumes that there is a limit to the total amount of sales that can be attained. In this situation, we use the term unattained sales for difference this limit and the current sales level. For example, if we expect sales grow to 3 thousand dollars in the long run, then 3-s is the unattained sales. The model states that the growth rate G is proportional to the product of the sales level s, and the unattained sales. Assume that the constant of proportionality is 0.3 and that the sales grow to 2 thousand dollars in the long run. a.Find the formula for unattained sales. b.Write an equation that shows the proportionality relation for G. c.On the basis of the equation from the part b, make a graph of G as a function of s. d.At what sales level is the growth rate as large as possible? e.What is the largest possible growth rate?arrow_forward
