Maximum Sales Growth This is a continuation of Exercise 10. In this exercise, we determine how the sales level that gives the maximum growth rate is related to the limit on sales. Assume, as above, that the constant of proportionality is 0.3, but now suppose that sales grow to a level of 4 thousand dollars in the limit. a. Write an equation that shows the proportionality relation for G. b. On the basis of the equation from part a, make a graph of G as a function of s. c. At what sales level is the growth rate as large as possible? d. Replace the limit of 4 thousand dollars with another number, and find at what sales level the growth rate is as large as possible. What is the relationship between the limit and the sales level that gives the largest growth rate? Does this relationship change if the proportionality constant is changed? e. Use your answers in part d to explain how to determine the limit if we are given sales data showing the sales up to a point where the growth rate begins to decrease.
Decay of Litter Litter such as leaves falls to the forest floor, where the action of insects and bacteria initiates the decay process. Let A be the amount of litter present, in grams per square meter, as a function of time t in years. If the litter falls at a constant rate of L grams per square meter per year, and if it decays at a constant proportional rate of k per year, then the limiting value of A is R=L/k. For this exercise and the next, we suppose that at time t=0, the forest floor is clear of litter. a. If D is the difference between the limiting value and A, so that D=RA, then D is an exponential function of time. Find the initial value of D in terms of R. b. The yearly decay factor for D is ek. Find a formula for D in term of R and k. Reminder:(ab)c=abc. c. Explain why A=RRekt.

Sketch the graph of y=(x^2 +x +3)/x^2, locate all maximum and minimum values, intervals of increase and decrease, and inflection points. HINT: Input your function in to maple. Plot your function using the maple plot command. Find the first and second derivatives of your original functions. Solve the first derivative for x in order to find possible min and max. Be sure to do the second derivative test to confirm min/max by subs critical numbers into the second derivative. Don’t forget to subs these critical numbers into the original function in order to find the co-ordinates of min/max.
True or false. if false, correct statement. if true, explain why. a. if a function, f, is continuous at a point c, then f is differentiable at the point c. b. if a function is concave down on its domain, then it will have a relative maximum. c. The derivative of a sum is the sum of its derivatives. d. the derivative of a function, f(x), is equal to limh->0 (f(x+h)-f(x))/h for all x values in the domain e. if f has an absolute minimum at c, then f'(c)=0
