Question
Generally, the more money a company spends on advertising, the higher the sales. Let a represent the amount of money spent on advertising (in $1000s). Then the amount of money in sales S(a)(in $1000s) is given by
S(a)=10+20log(a+1) where a is greater than or equal to 0
The value of S(1) is approximately 16.0 means that if $100 is spent on advertising, $16,000 is returned in sales. Find the following values, round to one decimal place. Interpret the meaning of each function value in the context of the problem.
Find S(31)
