Data kept by the human resources department of a manufacturing company indicates that t hours after beginning work, the production P (in units completed) of an average worker changes at the rate of P ' ( t ) = 0.1 ( t + 2 ) √ t 2 + 4 t If 2 hours after beginning work, an average worker can complete 14 . Round all answers to 2 decimal places. a . Specify the function that describes the number of units an average worker can complete in terms of the number of hours after beginning work. P ( t ) = b . Find the number of units an average worker can complete 2 hours after beginning work. units c . Approximate the number of units an average worker can complete from hour 4 to hour 5 . about units

a)  

b)  P(2) = 14 units

c) from hour 4 to hour 5, an average worker can complete about 0.1 of a unit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the problem gives the derivative of the production function, and also an extra piece of information (P(2) = 14) - also called initial condition - that allows us to find the actual production with any additional constant.

Let's work on the "antiderivative" of the function:

Using the change of variables   ,  becomes

Then, the family of antiderivatives becomes:

We should be able to determine the constant C using the initial condition for the problem:

Then we evaluate:

Then the function requested in point a) is:

Point b) "Find the number of units an average worker can complete 2 hours after beginning work" was already given as the initial condition, so P(2) = 14 units.

Point c) asks for the number of units an average worker can complete from hour 4 to hour 5, so we calculate the difference:

So the average worker can complete one tenths of a unit between hour 4 and hour 5.

what is the starting amount? the question is not clear sorry.

step-by-step explanation:

answer: a. 74

step-by-step explanation:

it shows divided evenly, so add the 37+37 = 74
