END OF THE IPOD ERA

players are replacing the iPod, along with the category of device it helped to create. Sales of the iPod worldwide from 2007

through 2011 (in millions) were

approximately

N(0= -2.65t2 + 13.13t+ 39.9 (0 < t< 4)

in year t, where t= 0 corresponds to 2007. Show that the worldwide sales of the iPod peaked sometime in 2009. What was the approximate largest number of iPods sold worldwide from 2007 through 2011?

a. Show that the worldwide sales of the iPod peaked sometime in 2009

N(t) = -2.65t² + 13.13t + 39.9

To find the maximum value of N(t), we find dN(t)/dt and equate it to zero

dN(t)/dt = d[-2.65t² + 13.13t + 39.9]/dt

dN(t)/dt = -5.3t + 13.13 = 0

-5.3t = - 13.13

t = -13.13/(-5.3)

t = 2.477

t ≅ 2.48

d²N(t)/dt² =d[-5.3t + 13.13]/dt = -5.3 < 0. So, t = 2.48 is a maximum point

Since t = 2 is 2009 and t = 3 is 2010, t = 2.48 will be a period within 2009.

b. What was the approximate largest number of iPods sold worldwide from 2007 through 2011?

The approximate largest number of ipods sold is when t = 2.48

N(2.48) = -2.65(2.48)² + 13.13(2.48) + 39.9

N(2.48) = -16.29856 + 32.5624 + 39.9

N(2.48) = 56.16384

N(2.48) ≅ 56.16 million

the number of the people going.

step-by-step explanation:

the cost to buy one movie ticket is $7. if the total cost for the movie is a function of how many people go, then the input is : the number of the people going.

5+2x=a
