What is “Rate of Change”? We are going to look at how to understand and how to find the “ rate of change ” in terms of functions.

The Problems The Tangent Problem The Velocity Problem

Example 1 The Tangent Problem Slope=?

Example 1 The Tangent Problem We are going to use a “limiting” process to “find” the slope of the tangent line at x=1. Slope=?

Example 1 The Tangent Problem First we compute the slope of the secant line between x=1 and x=3. Slope=?

Example 1 The Tangent Problem Then we compute the slope of the secant line between x=1 and x=2. Slope=?

Example 1 The Tangent Problem As the point on the right hand side of x=1 getting closer and closer to x=1, the slope of the secant line is getting closer and closer to the slope of the tangent line at x=1. Slope=?

Example 1 The Tangent Problem First we compute the slope of the secant line between x=1 and x=3. Slope=?

Example 1 The Tangent Problem We want a formula to compute this over and over again with other points in terms of their distance. Observation….

Observation… Let h be the distance between the two points.

Example 1 The Tangent Problem Let us record the results in a table. hslope

Example 1 The Tangent Problem We “see” from the table that the slope of the tangent line at x=1 should be _________. hslope

Limit Notations When h is approaching 0, is approaching 1. We say as h  0, Or,

Definition For the graph of, the slope of the tangent line at is if it exists.

Two Worlds and Two Problems

Example 2 The Velocity Problem y = distance dropped (ft) t = time (s) Displacement Function (Positive Downward) Find the velocity of the ball at t=2.

Example 2 The Velocity Problem Again, we are going to use the same limiting process. Find the average velocity of the ball from t=2 to t=2+h by the formula

Example 2 The Velocity Problem thAverage Velocity (ft/s) 2 to 31 2 to to to

Example 2 The Velocity Problem We “see” from the table that velocity of the ball at t=2 should be _________ft/s.

Example 2 The Velocity Problem We “see” from the table that velocity of the ball at t=2 should be 64ft/s. The instantaneous velocity at t=2 is 64 ft/s. (The ball is traveling at 64 ft/s 2 seconds after it dropped.)

Limit Notations When h is approaching 0, is approaching 64. We say as h  0, Or,

Definition For the displacement function, the instantaneous velocity at is if it exists.

Two Worlds and Two Problems

Review and Preview Example 1 and 2 show that in order to solve the tangent and velocity problems we must be able to find limits. In the next few sections, we will study the methods of computing limits without guessing from tables.
