Because Richard Parker was essential for Pi's survival on the lifeboat. He provided companionship, and together they formed a bond that helped Pi endure the challenging circumstances at sea. Additionally, killing Richard Parker would have deprived Pi of the hope and motivation to keep fighting for survival.
Pi kept on living because his survival instincts kicked in, driving him to stay alive despite the dangerous and seemingly impossible circumstances. He found hope and strength in his faith and his determination to survive, even if it meant facing extreme challenges alongside Richard Parker. Additionally, the will to reunite with his family and the drive to overcome obstacles also motivated him to keep going.
Richard Parker provides entertainment for Pi by serving as a constant source of intrigue and challenge.

Richard Parker's passivity in "Life of Pi" could be attributed to his survival instincts, as well as his dependence on Pi for food and shelter. Additionally, his passivity may stem from his instinct to avoid conflict in order to ensure his own safety.
At first, pi and the tiger are rivals and intolerant of each other because of Richard Parker's flight distance and control over his territory, but throughout the story, they become almost like best friends, helping each other survive. I'd say they're companions until the very end when R.P. deserts Pi.
