Mr. Smith is a sheep breeder and he has a neat farm. He would like to know how affects the population of his animals if he sells each year h percent (same as every year) of the old sheeps (older than 1 year). The birth rate of the olds is 90%, the death rate is 20%. The young sheeps (younger than 1 year) are not able to reproduction and the farmer will not sell them, the death rate of this group is 10%. Mr. Smith wants to reach maximum profit and will not lose all of his animals. How to choose the value of h?
NOTE: you have to determine only the same constant value (h) for every year
I hope it's clear, if you need any further explanation, don’t hesitate to ask!
