35. Profit The marginal profit of a certain company is given by
dydx=10032-4x
where x represents the amount of money (in thousands of dollars) that the company spends on
advertising. Find the profit for each advertising expenditure if the profit is $1000 when nothing is spent
on advertising.
a. $3000 b. $5000

37. Inflation If inflation grows continuously at a rate of 5% per year, how long will it take for $1 to
lose half its value?
