Question

The traffic flow rate (cars per hour) across an intersection is

Answer 1

Answer:

990 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

Find how many cars pass through at 6am, t=0:

r(0)= 300+600(0)-90(0²) = 300

Find how many cars pass through at 9am, t=3:

r(3)= 300+600(3)-900(3²)=300+1800-810=1290

Find the difference (how many cars pass between 6am and 9am): 1290-300=990
