Design the main hill of your roller coaster by deciding how tall and wide you
want it to be. Keep in mind that the tallest roller coaster in the world was built in
2005 and is 456 feet tall. Engineers have had difficulty building one taller than
that due to safety concerns and passenger comfort.
Once you have decided on its specifications, determine the rule that represents
the third section of your roller coaster.
You should submit the following here:
1. A graph of your first three sections and meets the following requirements.
• This is drawn neatly on the graph area provided in your Lesson
Companion or on graph paper scaled similarly.
• You have labeled the ordered pairs that represent the beginning and end
of each of these three sections.
• You have labeled the highest point of the roller coaster you have so far
designed.
Please answer the graphing in letter c, letter d with complete manual solution and not in excel form, and letter e.
