394/116. Increasing sales: After expanding their area of operations, a manufacturer of small storage buildings believes the larger area can support sales of 40 units per month. After increasing the advertising budget and enlarging the sales force, sales are expected to grow according to the model
where S( t) is the expected number of sales after t months. ( a) How many sales were being made each month, prior to the expansion? ( b) How many months until sales reach 25 units per month?

Drug absorption: The time required for a certain percentage of a drug to be absorbed by the body depends on the drug’s absorption rate. This can be modeled by the function
, where p represents the percent of the drug that remains unabsorbed ( expressed as a decimal), k is the absorption rate of the drug, and T( p) represents the elapsed time.
395/124. For a drug with an absorption rate of 5.7%, (a) find the time required (to the nearest hour) for the body to absorb 50% of the drug, and (b) find the percent of this drug (to the nearest half percent) that remains unabsorbed after 24 hr.
