Solve the problem.A rocket is shot straight up in the air from the ground at a rate of 79 feet per second. The rocket is tracked by a range finder that is 411 feet from the launch pad. Let d represent the distance from the rocket to the range finder and t represent the time, in seconds, since "blastoff". Express d as a function of t.

A. d(t) = 
B. d(t) = 
C. d(t) = 411 + 79t2
D. d(t) = 4112 + (79t)2


Answer: B

Provide an appropriate response.Consider this graph.Determine which points on the graph are critical points and describe why each of the points is a critical point.

A. The points on the function at x = a, b, d, and e are critical points, because the derivative is zero at each of these points. B. The points on the function at x = a, b, d, and e are critical points, because at x = a the first derivative does not exist and at x = b, d, and e the derivative is zero. C. The only critical points are those at x = b, d, and e, because the derivative is zero only at these points. D. Since the point at x = a is the only one for which the first derivative does not exist, this is the only critical point.
