    Determine the original velocity of the bullet

    1. Team 1 is racing out of the house to try to beat Team 2 to a site. They hop into the Convertible Porche Corvette Hybrid Jaguar that team 1 drives, and zoom away. If their position as a function of time is given by the equation x(t) = 3.81t3 + 9.882t2 + 18.6497t + 53.8946, determine the jerk...
