Oct 27, 2013 Thread starter #1 V Vishak New member Oct 27, 2013 18 Can someone please help me with this one? I have found the equilibrium solutions,but I'm not sure what to do next. Consider dx/dt = x^3 - 4x Given a solution x(t) which satisfies the condition x(0) = 1, determine the limit(t -> infinity) of x(t). Thanks!
