X(y) is the total number of androids(millions) sold in year y. A(y) is the number iphones (in millions) sold in year y. the total number of phones sold in year Y is X(y) + A(y). X(15)=550, E(15)= 75, X'(15)=0.2 and E'(12)=0.7

An iphone cost $150 on average, while the price of an android is a function F(y), with F(12)=16. What does F'(12) represent? Write an expression for total amount B(y) (in millions of dollars) spent on phones in year y. For what values of F'(12) is B'(y) positive?
