Answer

a) $10,000N(t)+5S(t)$ b) $1,250,000$ c) increase the number of stores by 5 per month

Work Step by Step

a) $\frac{dR}{dt}$ = $N(t)S'(t)+N'(t)S(t)$ N'(t) = 5 S'(t) = 10,000 so $\frac{dR}{dt}$ = $10,000N(t)+5S(t)$ b) $\frac{dR}{dt}|_{t=0}$ = $10,000N(0)+5S(0)$ N(0) = 50 S(0) = 150,000 so $\frac{dR}{dt}|_{t=0}$ = $(10,000\times50)+(5\times150,000)$ $\frac{dR}{dt}|_{t=0}$ = $1,250,000$ c) term 5S(0) is larger than the term10,000N(0) so increase the number of stores by 5 per month grow revenue most rapidly
