A ball is thrown straight up into the air from an initial height of 5 feet at time t = 0. The height, in feet, of the ball above the ground is given by h(t), where t is measured in seconds for 0 ≤ t ≤ 15. Based on the values of t and h(t) given in the table, for which value of t would the speed of the ball most likely be the greatest? t (seconds) 0 3 6 9 12 15
h(t) (feet) 5 12 15 11 6 0

Select one:
a. 2 seconds
b. 5 seconds

On the way home from visiting his family, vincent’s plane cruised at an altitude of 3.2 × 10^4 feet. he had heard that a man named felix baumgartner skydived from an altitude of 1.28 × 10^5 feet. vincent wants to know how much higher felix went on his skydiving trip. question 1 you have already seen how adding numbers works in either scientific notation or standard notation. but can you subtract numbers in scientific notation and get the same results as subtracting in standard notation? to find out, first solve vincent’s problem in standard notation. part a write the cruising altitude of vincent’s plane in standard notation.

If f(x) = 5х – 2 and g(x) = 2х + 1, find (f – g)(x).
