4. Jocelyn and Mason built rockets from assembly kits and decide to launch them at the same time to see whose rocket flies the highest. Jocelyn's rocket can be modeled by /(t) = -16t2 + 180x and Mason's rocket is modeled by M(t) = -16x2 + 140x. a. Whose rocket went the highest? b. After how many seconds did each rocket land? c. What was the difference in time between the rockets reaching their maximum height?
