Use the position function \(s(t)=-4.9 t^{2}+150\), which gives the height (in meters) of an object that has fallen from a height of 150 meters. The velocity at time \(t=a\) seconds is given by \(\lim _{t \rightarrow a} \frac{s(a)-s(t)}{a-t}\). Find the velocity of the object when \(t=3\).
Prove that if \(f\) has an inverse function, then \(\left(f^{-1}\right)^{-1}=f\).
$$ \lim _{x \rightarrow 2} f(x)=3, \text { where } f(x)=\left\\{\begin{array}{ll} 3, & x \leq 2 \\ 0, & x>2 \end{array}\right. $$
Prove that if \(f\) is continuous and has no zeros on \([a, b],\) then either \(f(x)>0\) for all \(x\) in \([a, b]\) or \(f(x)<0\) for all \(x\) in \([a, b]\)
Describe how the functions \(f(x)=3+\llbracket x \rrbracket\) and \(g(x)=3-\llbracket-x \rrbracket\) differ.
