Consider the differential equation dydt=y(y+1)(y−3)\dfrac{dy}{dt}=y(y+1)(y-3). The equation has equilibrium solutions at y=−1y=-1 and y=3y=3. Which of the following correctly classifies the stability of these two equilibria, in the order y=−1y=-1 then y=3y=3? a) Stable, unstable b) Unstable, semi-stable c) Unstable, unstable d) Unstable, stable
