Increasing: Decreasing:
For each function, find the intervals where it is increasing and decreasing, and JUSTIFY your conclusion. Construct a sign chart to help you organize the information, but do not use a calculator. 3. π π₯ π₯ 12π₯ 1

10. The rate of money brought in by a particular mutual fund is represented by π π‘ thousand dollars per
year where π‘ is measured in years. Is the amount of money from this mutual fund increasing or decreasing at time π‘ 5 years? Justify your answer.
11. The number of hair follicles on Mr. Sullivanβs scalp is measured by the function β π‘ 500π where π‘ is
measured in years. Is the amount of hair increasing or decreasing at π‘ 7 years? Justify your answer.
12. The rate at which rainwater flows into a street gutter is modeled by the function πΊ π‘ 10 sin cubic
feet per hour where π‘ is measured in hours and 0 π‘ 8. The gutterβs drainage system allows water to flow out of the gutter at a rate modeled by π· π‘ 0.02π₯ 0.05π₯ 0.87π₯ for 0 π‘ 8. Is the amount of water in the gutter increasing or decreasing at time π‘ 4 hours? Give a reason for your answer.
