Now that I've guided you through one example, it's time to let you try things a little more independently. We're basically going to do this same example over again several more times, but I want you to change the initial condition in each case to the values listed below. Repeat the same steps you took in your analysis of our initial example, however, change the names of your solution and your plot for each new initial condition, as indicated. You can probably save yourself a lot of typing by creatively copying and pasting your original commands, and then tweaking them slightly.

  1. y(0) = 1200, solution-name = mix2, plot-name = mix2plot
  2. y(0) = 1000, solution-name = mix3, plot-name = mix3plot
  3. y(0) = 800,   solution-name = mix4, plot-name = mix4plot
  4. y(0) = 600,   solution-name = mix5, plot-name = mix5plot
  5. y(0) = 400,   solution-name = mix6, plot-name = mix6plot

Let's move on and see what you should have gotten...
