What is the slope of a function at a given point?b. What is the instantaneous velocity of a moving particle at an instant in time?2. a. To find the slope of a function at a given point P we find the slope of the secant line connecting P and a nearby point Q. Then, we let Q move closer to P and continue to find the slope of the secant line as a better and better approximation to the slope of the function at P. We then take the limit of these slopes and that will be the slope of the function at P.b. To find the instantaneous velocity at time t0, we find the average velocity on the time interval from t0 to t1. We then get better and better approximations by letting the time interval get smaller and smaller. The limit of the average velocities is the instantaneous velocity at time t0.3. In both of these methods, we start with something known (slope of a secant, average velocity) to findan approximation to something unknown (slope ofa tangent, instantaneous velocity). We then improve the approximation and this leads to a limitSection 2.2 A.1. a. 6b. 4c. does not existd. 6e. 2f. 2g. 2h. 22. a. Trueb. Falsec. Falsed. Truee. Truef. Trueg. TrueB.2.

Average velocity is change in position divided by change in time. In this case we need position at time t2 minus position at time t1, divided by t2 minus t1. Av velocity = 2 12 1( ) ( )s t s tst t t-D=D -5. The instantaneous velocity at t1 is the limit of the average velocities as t2 gets very, very close to t1. Inst velocity = 0 0lim ( av vel) limt tstD � D �D=D6. The average velocity is an "average" of how fast the particle moved during a given time interval whereas the instantaneous velocity is the velocity of the particle at an instant. Also, average velocity is a ratio of the change in position to the change intime. Instantaneous velocity at time t is the limit of the average velocity as the time interval shrinksto zero.B.2.a.
