    The position of the train at the time 4.9 seconds is 99.563 meters

    Explanation:

    * Lets explain how to solve the problem

    The position-time equation for a certain train is:

    f (x) = 2.2 + 8.6 t + 2.3 t², where f (x) is the position of the train in

    meters at a certain time t in second.

    We need to find the position of the train at the time 9.4 seconds.

    So lets substitute the value of t in the position-time equation.

    The position-time equation f (x) = 2.2 + 8.6 t + 2.3 t²

    The time = 4.9 seconds

    f (x) = 2.2 + 8.6 (4.9) + 2.3 (4.9) ²

    f (x) = 2.2 + 42.14 + 55.223

    f (x) = 99.563

    The position of the train at the time 4.9 seconds is 99.563 meters
