The growth of the predator population will depend on this number, and on the efficiency with which predators convert consumed prey into predator offspring (c for conversion). Note that this is also a constant, and like the solution for the prey population, it does not specify the equilibrium size of the predator population, only the size of the prey population at which the predators are at equilibrium.
