ohhh i get it thank youi. Newport is the vertex. t=-b/2a (vertex formula) = 6/6 =1 hour
ii. Be careful with this one. Total distance is not distance from t=0 to when he gets home.
At the beginning at t=0, x=30
At Newport (t=1) x=33
At home, x=0
Firstly, he travelled 3 kilometers to get to Newport, and then another 33 to get home. So in total he travelled 36km
The problem is, according to the question, he started at Lane Cove and drove to Newport. In driving this trip, his distance from home increased by only 3 km. This is difficult to do when the distance between these suburbs is nearly 30 km...i. Newport is the vertex. t=-b/2a (vertex formula) = 6/6 =1 hour
