    Equation - for how many seconds is this arrow more than 86 feet high ...

    1) If an arrow is shot straight upward with a velocity of 96 feet per second (ft/sec) from an altitude of 6 feet, for how many seconds is this arrow more than 86 feet high? Note If an object is given an initial velocity straight upward of "v lower case 0" feet per second from a height of "s lower case 0" feet, then its altit

    Important information about Quadratic Inequality

    A person's revenue "R" (in dollars) on the sale of "X" fruitcakes is determined by the formula R = 50x - x squared. Her cost "C" in dollars for producing "X" fruitcakes is given by the formula C = 2x + 40. For what value of "X" is the person's profit positive? (Profit = revenue - cost).

    Power Series, Partial Sums and Radius of Convergence

    Suppose that you have done some mathematical modelling. This has produced a differential equation which you have solved by assuming a power series solution. The power series you have found is the following.... (a) What is the radius of convergence of the power series? (b) Use Mathematica to plot the partial sums....

    Convergence of series

    Please help with the following problem. This problem is from Advanced Calculus II class. It is also an introduction to real analysis. Consider the series n = 1 to infinity 1/( 1 + n^2 x) (a) For what values of x in R does the series converge absolutely? (b) On what intervals of R does it converge uniformly? (c) On wh

    Toy Rocket Maximum Heights

    A toy rocket is launched from the ground so that its distance in feet above the ground after t seconds is s(t) = -16t squared + 208t. I am trying to determine the maximum height it reaches and the number of seconds it takes to reach that height.
