#Section 2: Evolution

For two species A and B in competition, the carrying capacities, competition coefficients, per capita growth rate and population size are

KA = 1000          KB = 1200        α= .5    r A= .3    N1= 500         N2= 200          

According to the Lotka-Volterra model, what is growth rate of species A?
