Question

Between 1990 and 2000, the revenue earned (in thousands of dollars) from exercise equipment can be modeled by R=1/13t^2-11/65t+10. Where t=0 corresponds to 1990. If the trend continues, in what year will the revenue reach $37,000? (Think of it in terms of quadratics or object thrown models, either way try to show work).

Answer 1

\[r=\frac{ 1 }{ 13 }t^{2}-\frac{ 11 }{ 65 }t+10\]
