A marketing specialist determines that when a certain product is released, the number of social media references to it can be modeled by f(t) = 350 + 462ln(t), where t is the number of days since the release. Which of the following is the best interpretation of f'(7) = 66? After 7 days, the number of references is decreasing by 66 per day. After 7 days, the number of references is increasing by 66 per day. After 66 days, the number of references is increasing by 7 per day. After 7 days, there are 66 references.

In response to certain market demands, manufacturers will quickly get a product out on the market to take advantage of consumer interest. Once the product is released, it is not uncommon for sales to initially skyrocket, taper off and then gradually decrease as consumer interest wanes. For a certain product, sales can be modeled by the function $S(t)=\frac{250 t}{t^{2}+150},$ where $S(t)$ represents the daily sales (in $\$ 10,000$ ) $t$ days after the product has debuted. Use the given graph of the function to answer the following questions. (GRAPH CAN NOT COPY) a. Approximately how many days after the product came out did sales reach a maximum? What was the maximum sales? b. Use $S(t)$ to compute the rate of change for the intervals $t=7$ to $t=8$ and $t=60$ to $t=62$ What do you notice? c. Use the direction/approach notation to state what happens to the daily sales $S$ as the number of days becomes infinitely large. What role does the $t$ -axis play for this function?

Use a calculator to determine the derivative. A rumor is spreading through a city. The number of people who have heard the rumor after $t$ days is modeled by $$f(t)=\frac{100,000}{1+9.134(0.8)^{t}}$$. Graph $f(t)$ in the window $[0,32]$ by $[0,100,000] .$ Determine how fast the rumor is spreading after 8 days.
