    Roller Coaster Polynomial that describes height of ride at given distances

    roller coaster polynomial problem You want to design a roller coaster. It will start at the ground level. You want the coaster to be at the ground level 20 yards away, 25 yards and 50 yards away. 10 yards away, you want the coaster to be at a height of 15 yards. You decide to model the roller...

    Water Basin dimensions, given thickness, volume, variable, etc.

    A water basin is made with outer dimensions that is x inches high. The width is 3 times the height. The length is 6 times the height. The walls of the basin are 1 inch think on each of the four sides as well as the bottom (i.e. there is no "top wall" of the basin). The volume of the inside of...
