​One Point Pop Quiz Videos and solutions


Picture
While not directly asked by this pop quiz, you should by now know the following VERY quickly
  1. platform height is 3 feet
  2. max height is 133 feet
  3. midline is y = 68
  4. The ride last for 404 seconds 
  5. the five most important points are (0,3)  (101,68)  (202, 133) (303,68) (404,3)

Use the given model to find when a model is at a specific height in one rotation of the Ferris Wheel.  Assume height is measured in feet and time is measured in seconds


Question 1: Determine WHEN the rider is at a height of 60 feet on one revolution of the ride


x = 93.1 or x = 310.9


Picture

Question 2: Determine WHEN the rider is AT a height of 30 feet and ABOVE on one revolution of the ride
Picture

Solution Process for when is the Rider at and ABOVE 30 feet



Question 3: Determine WHEN the rider is AT a height of 30 feet and BELOW on one revolution of the ride
