5. Alabama Instruments Company has set up a production line to manufacture a new cal-
culator. The rate of production of these calculators after t weeks is
 
dx 100
= 5000 1 − (calculators/week).
dt (t + 10)2

(Notice that production approaches 5000 per week as time goes on, but the initial pro-
duction is lower because of the workers’ unfamiliarity with the new techniques.) Find the
number of calculators produced from the beginning of the third week to the end of the
fourth week.
