Please, help with this problem.
This problem set deals with the problem of non-constant acceleration. Two researchers from
Fly By Night Industries conduct an experiment with a sports car on a test track. While one is
driving the car, the other will look at the speedometer and record the speed of the car at one-
second intervals. Now, these aren't official researchers and this isn't an official test track, so
the speeds are in miles per hour using an analog speedometer. The data set they create is:
{(1,5), (2, 2), (3, 30), (4, 50), (5, 65), (6,70)}
Z = 25
They notice that the acceleration is not a constant value. They decide that a fourth-degree
polynomial will be the best to describe the speed of the car as a function of time.
The task here is to determine the fourth-degree polynomial that fits this data set the best.

- A tortoise challenged a hare to a 100-meter race on a track. The tortoise negotiated a 50-meter head start with the hare. When the race started the hare was running at a constant speed of 2.8 meters per second and the tortoise was crawling at a speed of 0.5 meters per second. (They both maintained these speeds for the entire race.) Our goal is to determine who won the race. Read the above problem statement again, then explain in writing on a sheet of paper how you will determine who won the race. Construct a drawing to represent the 100-meter length of the track. Then place the tortoise and hare's starting points on the track. Define the variable t to represent the number of seconds since the start of the race.

Solve, Use the data points (317, 57.04) and (354, 57.64), shown, but not labeled, in Figure (b) [see attached herewith] to obtain a linear function that models average global temperature, f(x), for an atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration of x parts per million.

- Have you ever been on an airplane and heard the pilot say that the plane would be a little late because it would be flying into a strong headwind or that even though the plane was taking off a bit late, you would be making up time because you would be flying with a tailwind? This problem asks you to analyze such a situation. You have the following data: A plane flying at its maximum speed can go 230 miles per hour with a tailwind or 150 miles per hour into a headwind. What is the wind speed (in miles per hour)? What would be the maximum speed of the plane (in miles per hour) if there were no wind?arrow_forwardPlease show step-by-step solution to the problem.arrow_forwardThe SAT and ACT exams are often used to predict a student's first-term college grade point average (GPA).
