A car was driving on a two-lane highway at 85 feet per second (about 58 mph) when it abruptly speeds up to pass a slow-moving truck. The velocity of the car (in ft/sec) after t seconds is given by
v(t) = 85 + 9t e -t/4
74 for (0sts30).
(a) Find and interpret v(0), v(4) and v(30).
(b) Find a formula for the position function s(t).
