Exercise (b) The distance d, in miles, that a car travels on a 6-hour trip is proportional to its speed s (which we assume remains the same throughout the trip), in miles per hour. Write a formula that expresses d as a function of s. Step 1 The distance traveled is the speed times time driven. Distance = Speed x Time The time is 6 v hours. We use s for speed and d for distance. With these values we express the above formula as d =

Francine throws a wrench into the air from the bottom of a trench 10 feet deep. Its height t seconds later is given, in feet, by h = -16t + 34t – 10 a. When will the wrench attain its maximum height? Round your answer to two decimal places and choose the correct units. O A. meters O B. seconds OC. hours OD. feet b. According to the function, how do you know your answer to part (b) is where the maximum height is attained and not the minimum height? O A. The leading coefficient is positive, so the graph is concave up O B. The leading coefficient is positive so that graph is concave down OC. The leading coefficient is negative, so the graph is concave down OD. The leading coefficient is negative, so the graph is concave up
