Hello,
I'm stuck on Part B of this Leslie matrix application question:
For Part A I found the Leslie Matrix:
[math]L=\begin{pmatrix} 0.2 & 0.5 & 0.6 & 0.4\\ 0.7 & 0 & 0 & 0\\ 0 & 0.7 & 0 & 0\\ 0 & 0 & 0.7 & 0\\ \end{pmatrix}[/math]
And the initial population matrix as:
[math]P_0=\begin{pmatrix} 800\\ 800\\ 800\\ 800\end{pmatrix}[/math]
Then find the population on the 20th Day using the formula:
[math]P_k=L^kP_0[/math]
But this was incorrect. Anything helps.
Thanks.
