We are given the function: $$P(t)=0.138t^4-6.24t^3+86.8t^2-239t+1450,0\leq t\leq 22.$$ We make a table of values for the function $P$: \[ \begin{array}{|c|c|} \hline t& P(t) \\ \hline 0 &1450\\ \hline 2 & 1271.5\\ \hline 4 & 1518.7\\ \hline 6 & 1971.8\\ \hline 10 & 2880\\ \hline 14 & 3295.6\\ \hline 18 & 3366.2\\ \hline 22 &4087.0\\ \hline \end{array}\]
