Answer:

S'(x)=-0.006x2+0.8x+9

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change of the sales S(x) with respect to the amount of money spent on advertising x is then the derivative of S(x) with respect to x. What we have to calculate is S'(x).

We know that the derivative of ax^n is nax^{n-1} (where a is a constant), and the derivative of a sum is the sum of the derivatives, so we can calculate the derivative of each term independently:

S'(x)=(−0.002x3 + 0.4x2 + 9x + 500)'=(−0.002)(3)x2 + (0.4)(2)x + 9

Which means:

S'(x)=-0.006x2+0.8x+9

Write the equation of a line in the given form.
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

y = \frac{1}{4}x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form: y = mx + b

Find slope:

m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

   = (-5 - (-4)) / (0 - 4)

   = -1 / -4

   = 1/4

Find y intercept using anyone of the given points and slope from above:

y = mx + b

-5 = \frac{1}{4}(0) + b

b = -5

Now use the above slope and y intercept to create equation of a line:

y = \frac{1}{4}x - 5
