5. 2. The graph of f(x) = a +b(1-2) for positive constants a, b, and c may be used to describe certain learning processes. To illustrate, suppose a manufacturer estimates that a new employee can produce 3 items the first day on the job. As the employee becomes more proficient, more items per day can be produced until a certain maximum production is reached. Suppose that after n days on the job the number f(n) of items produced is approximated by the formula f(n) = 3 + 2001 - e""). a -0.1 (A) Estimate the number of items produced on the fifth day; the ninth day; the twenty fourth day; the thirtieth day. (B) What happens as n increases without bound?
