Answer:

Explanation:

Given the equation modelled by the height of the train given as:

s(t) = 18t²-2t³ for for 0 ≤ t ≤ 9

a) Velocity is the rate of change of displacement.

Velocity = dS(t)/dt

V = dS(t)/dt = 36t - 6t² miles

Velocity at t = 3hrs is determiner by substituting t = 3 into the velocity function.

V = 36(3) -6(3)²

V= 108 - 72

Velocity = 36mi/hr

b) for Velocity at time = 7hrs

V(7) = 36(7) - 6(7)²

V(7) = 252 - 294

V(7) = -42mi/hr

The velocity at t = 7hrs is -42mi/hr

c) Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.

a(t) = dV(t)/dt

Given v(t) = 36t - 6t²

a(t) = 36 - 12t

Acceleration at t=1 is given as:

a(1) = 36 -12(1)

a(1) = 24mi/hr²
