The values of certain types of collectibles can often fluctuate greatly over time. Suppose that the value of a particular limited edition figurine is found to be able to be modeled by the function
?(?) = −0.01?4 + 0.47?3 − 7.96?2 + 49.18? + 65 for 0 ≤ ? ≤ 20 where ?(?) is in dollars, t is the number of years after the figurine was released, and ? = 0 corresponds to the year 1999.
a) What was the value of the figurine in the year 2009?
b) What was the value of the figurine in the year 2019?
c) What was the instantaneous rate of change of the value of the figurine in the year 2002?
d) What was the instantaneous rate of change of the value of the figurine in the year 2019?
e) Use your answers from parts a-d to estimate the value of the figurine in 2020.
