Question

The SIR model for the spread of an infectious disease is used to predict the spread of a disease in a community. The variables are: 

S: Number of susceptible people, who are currently healthy but could get the disease

I: Number f=of infected people

Put S horizontally and I vertically. They are related by the following equations. 

S'=-0.0005SI

I'=0.0005SI-0.05I

What are the S-nullclines and the I-nullclines?
