I need help with question 6 please 

6. Over a 24-hour period 0 <t< 24, the power drawn by a household is given by the function
p(t)
= -0.007t? + 0.2t + 0.4,
where t is the number of hours after midnight, and p(t) is power, in kilowatts.
(a) At what time does the power drawn by the household reach its maximum? Justify your answers by using
calculus and including appropriate algebraic calculations, and circle your answer.
(b) What is the maximum power drawn by the household over the 24-hour period? Give your answer
accurate to two decimal places, include units, and circle your final answer.
