3) Which inequality represents this scenario?

Answer:
=====================================================
Explanation:
w is the weight and it may be no more than 3.3 pounds. This is the same as saying that 3.3 pounds is the highest it can go. Think of it as the ceiling.
w = 3.3 is possible or anything smaller than it is possible.
So w is 3.3 or smaller meaning we write the inequality
The answer is not w < 3.3 because that would exclude 3.3 itself.
The answer is between choices C and D. It seems like one of those inequality signs should have an underline.

Integrate both sides with respect to <em>t</em> :
∫ d<em>y</em>/d<em>t</em> d<em>t</em> = ∫ -12<em>t</em> ² d<em>t</em>
<em>y(t)</em> = -4<em>t</em> ³ + <em>C</em>
Use the initial condition to solve for <em>C</em> :
5 = -4•0³+ <em>C</em>
<em>C</em> = 5
So
<em>y(t)</em> = -4<em>t</em> ³ + 5
and the answer is D.
Alternatively, you can directly apply the fundamental theorem of calculus:
