Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.

Chapter 3.2, Problem 56E

Profit A manufacturer of microcomputers estimates that t months from now it will sell x thousand units of its main line of microcomputers per month, where x = .05 t 2 + 2 t + 5 . Because of economics of scale, the profit P from manufacturing and selling x thousand units is estimated to be P = .001 x 2 + .1 x − .25 million dollars. Calculate the rate at which the profit will be increasing 5 months from now.
