This problem is about the company earning $x$ per year.

(Important) Let $f (x)$ be the area under the $x$ curve, above the interval from $0$ to $x$ . The area to $x + Δ x$ is $f (x + Δ x)$ . The extra area is $Δ f =$ ____. This is almost a rectangle with base ____ and height $x$ . So $Δ f /Δ x$ is close to ____. As $Δ x \to 0$ we suspect that $df / d x =$ ____.
