Power Operation
Power operation is topic of algebra in Math. It is use to represent repeated multiplication. Very big number and very small number can be easily express using power operation. Power operation is useful in many fields. In space engineering, it helps in representing the distance or size of particular heavenly body. In medical field, it is used to represent very small size. In medical field it helps to mention size of bacteria or virus.
Exponents
The exponent or power or index of a variable/number is the number of times that variable/number is multiplied by itself.

c. If 16 seconds have passed since the roller coaster started, what is the heigh
of the roller coaster?
Bonus: When does the roller coaster reach 100 feet above the ground?

Transcribed Image Text:Congratulations! You've graduated college as a Physics & Mathematics double major, and
you've scored your dream job working at Six Flags to help them design new roller coasters. In
the graph below, you will see that your boss has started developing the plan for a new roller
coaster - THE TIGER - but needs you to finish the job. Answer the questions below based on the
given piecewise function and the graph that is attached.
Given: The function f(x) will model the roller coaster's height from the ground in feet over
time, measured in seconds since the ride started.
