An inferior product with an extensive advertising campaign does well when it is released, but sales decline as people discontinue use of the product. If the sales S (in thousands of dollars) after t weeks are given by
S(t) =
190t(t + 7)2
, t ≥ 0
what is the rate of change of sales when
t = 9?
(Round your answer to two decimal places.)
S'(t) =
Interpret your result.
From the 9th to the 10th week, sales will increase approximately |S'(t)| thousand dollars.From the 9th to the 10th week, sales will decrease approximately |S'(t)| thousand dollars. From the 9th to the 10th week, sales will increase approximately |S'(t)| dollars.From the 9th to the 10th week, sales will decrease approximately |S'(t)| dollars.
