Answer:
[tex]P'(t) = -10t + 75[/tex] and P'(5) = 25.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that,
The median home price is represented by the function, [tex]P(t) = -5t^2 + 75t -30[/tex].
So, differentiating the function with respect to 't', we get,
[tex]P'(t) = -5\times2t + 75[/tex]
i.e. [tex]P'(t) = -10t + 75[/tex]
So, after subsituting 't=5', we get,
[tex]P'(5) = -10\times 5+75[/tex]
i.e. P'(5) = -50+75
i.e. P'(5) = 25
Hence, we get,
[tex]P'(t) = -10t + 75[/tex] and P'(5) = 25.
