Roller Coaster Lab: Solve 2 Cubic Polynomials & Graph Solution
Okay so I have been trying to figure this out and I still just don't get it. I took the derivative of the first equation and then plugged in 0 for x and 50 for y. That tells me that c is also equal to 50. Now how am I able to figure out what a and b are as well as plugging in the slope. I...- NCHEVYHEVN
