Give a brief reason for your answer.arrow_forwardIn a hypothetical study of population dynamics, scientists have been tracking the number of rabbits and foxes on an island. The number of rabbits and foxes are determined once a year using high resolution infrared cameras and advanced computer vision methods.Each year, the number of rabbits and foxes are found to change by the following equations: $$ {\Delta}R = round( kr*R - krf*R*F ) $$ $$ {\Delta}F = round( -kf*F + kfr*R*F ) $$ where $ {\Delta}r $ and $ {\Delta} f $ are the changes in number of rabbits and foxes by the end of that year; and R and F are the population sizes at the end of the previous year. kr, krf, kf, kfr are coefficients that depend on the species of rabbits and foxes.With these dynamics, the scientists realize that one or both species can become extinct on the island. At the end of each year, if there are fewer than 2 animals of a kind, the scientists transfer rabbits and/or foxes to make sure there are at least 2 of each kind.Write a function…arrow_forwardEach of 10 flips of a coin produces either a head or a tail.

An observation is: I shuffle the cards, pick one at random, and show it to you. You are estimating n by counting the total number of aces (let's denote it k) in m observations, and then computing 5k m You may assume that 1arrow_forward
