Question 10 of 10 • FL-1200330-Algebra 2 A

A roller coaster starts with the cars being pulled up a ramp. The mass of the cars is estimated by the function m(p) = 175p + 1,180 where p is the number of passengers in the car. The potential energy of the car is calculated using the function E(m) = 9.8mh, where h is the height of the ramp.

Answer
A
(E(m(p))) = 51,450p + 346,920
B
(E(m(p))) = 51,450p + 1,180
C
(E(m(p))) = 1,715p + 1,180
D
(E(m(p))) = 294p + 1,180
