the rocket above the ground, in feet, is given by the equation h(t) = 16t2 + 64t,
where t is the time in seconds. Determine the domain for this function in the
given context. Explain your reasoning.
32. Jackson is starting an exercise program. The first day he will spend 30 minutes
on a treadmill. He will increase his time on the treadmill by 2 minutes each day.
Write an equation for T(d), the time, in minutes, on the treadmill on day d.
Find T(6), the minutes he will spend on the treadmill on day 6.

37. A rectangular picture measures 6 inches by 8 inches. Simon wants to build
a wooden frame for the picture so that the framed picture takes up a maximum
area of 100 square inches on his wall. The pieces of wood that he uses to build
the frame all have the same width.
Write an equation or inequality that could be used to determine the maximum
width of the pieces of wood for the frame Simon could create.
Explain how your equation or inequality models the situation.
Solve the equation or inequality to determine the maximum width of the pieces
of wood used for the frame to the nearest tenth of an inch.
