The position of a moving particle is given by the position function: f(t)=-9t-t^2-0.2t^3+0.1t^4 0 a. at what time does the particle reverse direction? b. when is the displacement positive? (round one decimal place and answer in interval notation) c. when is the displacement negative? (round one decimal place and answer in interval notation) d. when is the particle’s acceleration positive? (round one decimal place and answer in interval notation) e. when is the particle’s acceleration negative? (round one decimal place and answer in interval notation)

Asystem of linear equations with more equations than unknowns is sometimes called an overdetermined system. can such a system be consistent? illustrate your answer with a specific system of three equations in two unknowns. choose the correct answer below. a. yes, overdetermined systems can be consistent. for example, the system of equations below is consistent because it has the solution nothing. (type an ordered pair.) x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 6 b. no, overdetermined systems cannot be consistent because there are fewer free variables than equations. for example, the system of equations below has no solution. x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 12 c. yes, overdetermined systems can be consistent. for example, the system of equations below is consistent because it has the solution nothing. (type an ordered pair.) x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 8 d. no, overdetermined systems cannot be consistent because there are no free variables. for example, the system of equations below has no solution. x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 24
