Problem 5
A farmer is monitoring the growth of a crop over a -day period. The height of the crop in centimeters is given by the function h(t)={59t2, if 0≤t<60−59(t2−240t+120),if 60≤t<120 , where is the time in days since initially planting their crops. When is the growth rate of the crop at a maximum?
