Suppose Neil Armstrong decided to throw a golf ball into the air while he was standing on the moon and that the height of the golf ball was modeled by the equation below, where s is
measured in feet and t is measured in seconds s(t) = -2.72t2 + 26.9t + 6. Find the best
approximation for the instantaneous rate of change (velocity) of the golf ball at 7 seconds.

In new york city at the spring equinox there are 12 hours 8 minutes of daylight. the longest and shortest days of the year very by two hours and 53 minutes from the equinox in this year the equinox falls on march 21 in this task you use trigonometric function to model the hours of daylight hours on certain days of the year in new york city a.what is the independent and dependent variables? b.find the amplitude and the period of the function. c.create a trigonometric function that describes the hours of sunlight for each day of the year. d. graph the function you build in part c. e. use the function you build in part c to find out how many fewer daylight hours february 10 will have than march 21. you may look at the calendar.
