1. The paths of two dolphins playing in the ocean were recorded by some biologists. The first dolphin's path could be modelled by the equation h(t) = 2t4 - 17t³ + 27t² - 252t +232 and the second dolphin's path could be modelled by the equation h(t) = 20t3-200t² + 300t - 200.When was the first dolphin higher than the second dolphin?
