    Answer: 47

    Step-by-step explanation:

    x = 4:30 - 3:00

    = 1:30

    = 1.5 hours

    y = - 5.9x² + 39x + 2.2

    = - 5.9 (1.5) ² + 39 (1.5) + 2.2

    = - 5.9 (2.25) + 58.5 + 2.2

    = - 13.275 + 60.7

    = 47.425

    Step-by-step explanation:

    x = 4:30 - 3:00

    = 1:30

    = 1.5 hours

    y = - 5.9x² + 39x + 2.2

    = - 5.9 (1.5) ² + 39 (1.5) + 2.2

    = - 5.9 (2.25) + 58.5 + 2.2

    = 13.275 + 60.7

    = 73.975
