A manufacturer has determined that the growth rate
of sales S (in units) of a newly developed product should be
approximated by S(_^')(x) =2,000/∛t , where t is the number of
years from now. Assuming there are no sales at the introduction of
the product to the market,
How many units of the product will have been sold 5
years from now?
At what rate will the number of sales be changing
after 5 years?
Using the result from part b., estimate how many units
of the product will have been sold 6 years from now.
Calculating as you did in part a. and without using the results from part b, how many units of the product will have been sold 6 years from now? Was part c a close estimate to this number?
