How to find x_(n+1)=(a*x_n+b*y_n)/c*x_n , y_(n+1)=d*x_n*y_n? I want to find a list of x and y when n=1,2,...,50 so I defined the function as f[{x_,y_}]:={a*x_n+b*y_n)/c*x_n,d*x_n*y_... } and then use the function NestList[f,{2,5},50] with initial value of x is 2 and y is 5 with this, I got the list of 50 values of (x,y). The problem is I want to plot graphs of x against n and y against n, n from 1 to 50 because I want to see what happened if n goes to infinity. But if use the method I just mentioned, I can only plot x against y. So do anyone have a clever method?? Btw...a,b,c and d are constants and given and x_n is supposed to be x (subscript n)...same case with x_(n+1) and the others
