Part II: Analysis
5) How many seconds does the roller coaster last?
6) What is the roller coaster's starting height? How many seconds does it take the
roller coaster to reach maximum height?
7) Describe what the roller coaster is doing in the interval 7
8) Use your knowledge of function notation and piecewise functions to determine the
following:
a. f(10) =
i. Explain what this value means in real world context.
b. f(20) =
1. Explain what this value means in real world context.
c. If 16 seconds have passed since the roller coaster started, what is the height
of the roller coaster?
Bonus: When does the roller coaster reach 100 feet above the ground?
