A small radio transmitter broadcasts in a 36 mile radius. If you drive along a straight line from a city 50 miles north of the transmitter to a second city 44 miles east of the transmitter, during how much of the drive will you pick up a signal from the transmitter? Give your answer rounded to the nearest tenth of a mile.

Data for the height of a model rocket launch in the air over time are shown in the table. darryl predicted that the height of the rocket at 8 seconds would be about 93 meters. did darryl make a good prediction? yes, the data are best modeled by a quadratic function. the value of the function at 8 seconds is about 93 meters. yes, the data are best modeled by a linear function. the first differences are constant, so about 93 meters at 8 seconds is reasonable. no, the data are exponential. a better prediction is 150 meters. no, the data are best modeled by a cubic function. a better prediction is 100 meters.
