Monthly sales of a particular personal computer are expected to decline at the following rate of S'(t) computers per​ month, whe

re t is time in months and​ S(t) is the number of computers sold each month.
S'(t)= -30t^(2/3)

The company plans to stop manufacturing this computer when monthly sales reach 1,000 computers. If monthly sales now ​(t=​0) are 2,440 computers, find​ S(t). How long will the company continue to manufacture this​ computer?

Answer:

S(t) = -18t^\frac{5}{3}+2440

Company will take approximately 14 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function that shows the change rate of computers,

S'(t)=-30 t^{\frac{2}{3}}

Where,

t = number of months

On integrating,

\int S'(t) = -30\int t^{\frac{2}{3}} dt

S(t) = -30(\frac{t^{\frac{2}{3}+1}}{\frac{2}{3}+1})+C

S(t) = -30 (\frac{t^{\frac{2+3}{3}}}{\frac{2+3}{3}})+C

S(t) = -30(\frac{t^\frac{5}{3}}{\frac{5}{3}})+C

S(t) = -30(\frac{3t^\frac{5}{3}}{5})+C

S(t) =-18t^\frac{5}{3}+C

According to the question,

S(0) = 2,440,

\implies -18(0)^\frac{5}{3}+C=2440\implies C = 2440

Hence, the required function,

S(t) = -18t^\frac{5}{3}+2440

If S(t) = 1,000,

-18t^\frac{5}{3}+2440=1000

-18t^\frac{5}{3}=-1440

t^\frac{5}{3}=80

t = (80)^\frac{3}{5}\approx 13.86

After 2 week he has used 8 1/2 cups of dog food after 5 week he has used 21 1/4 cups construct a function in the form y =mx+ to
gladu [14]

Answer:

<em> y = 4.25x</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

After 2 week he has used 8 1/2 cups of dog food after 5 week he has used 21 1/4 cups, we can write this in coordinate form (x, y) where;

y is the amount of dog food

x is the time in weeks

The coordinates are (2, 8 1/2) and (5, 21 1/4)

get the slope m:

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = (21 1/4 - 8 1/2)/5-2

m = (85/4-17/2)/3

m = (85-34/4)/3

m = 51/12

m = 4.25

Get the intercept c:

Substitute any of the points say (2, 17/2) and m = 51/12 into the equation

y = mx+c

17/2 = 51/12(2) + c

17/2 = 51/6 + c

c = 17/2 - 51/6

c = 51-51/6

c = 0

Get the required equation:

substitute m - 4.25 and c = 0 into y = mx+c

y = 4.25x + 0

<em>Hence the required equation is y = 4.25x</em>
