Why can't a critical point of a system of DEs be complex?
From the first equation we can write $$y=\frac{x}{2}+\frac{x^2}{8}$$ Subbing into the rhs of the second equation and equating to zero we find (after some algebra) that $$x(x-4)(x^2+12x+72)=0$$ This equation has roots ##0##, ##4##, and ##-6\pm 6i##. Then, ##x=0\implies y=0## and...- zenterix
