  1. Use a Divided difference scheme to predict the position of the car and its speed when t = 10s.
  2. Use the derivative of the polynomial to determine whether the car ever exceeds a 55 mi/h speed limit on the road. If so, what is the first time the car exceeds this speed?
  3. What is the predicted maximum speed for the car using appropriate coding scheme
