Modeling Population Dynamics: Exponential Equations and Stabilization

This lesson covers writing and solving systems of nonlinear equations using exponential graphs. It reviews exponential functions, growth and decay factors, and their applications in modeling real-world scenarios. The MacArthur-Wilson theory of biogeography is discussed, focusing on species immigration and extinction. The lesson models these processes using exponential equations, demonstrating how to find equilibrium points where immigration and extinction rates stabilize.
