In this video we will explain some practical real life applications of Matrices using Leslie Matrices. The Leslie Matrix Model allows us to model the growth of the female portion of an animal population over time. E.g. find out the number of female rabbits after N years, based on what we know about the number of rabbits currently, and their birth / survival rates.
