Answer

$V(t)=73,584t^{3}+709,560t^{2}-525,600t+76,212$

Work Step by Step

$V(t) $ is an antiderivative of the given instantaneous rate of change $m(t).$ $V(t)=\displaystyle \int(525,600(0.42t^{2}+2.7t-1) )dt$ $=525,600(0.42\displaystyle \cdot\frac{t^{3}}{3}+2.7\cdot\frac{t^{2}}{2}-t)+C$ $=73,584t^{3}+709,560t^{2}-525,600t+C,$ which is a collection of functions. To find the exact function, we find $C.$ The middle of the year 2005 is $t=0.5$ years after the start of 2005. We are given $V(0.5)=0\qquad $hours $0=73584(0.5)^{3}+709560(0.5)^{2}-525,600(0.5)+C,$ $0=-76212+C$ $C=76212$ Thus, $V(t)=73,584t^{3}+709,560t^{2}-525,600t+76,212$
