Get started for freeA tomato plant given ounces of fertilizer will successfully bear pounds of tomatoes in a growing season.
(a) In real-world terms, what does represent and what are its units? What does represent and what are its units?
(b) A study has shown that this fertilizer encourages tomato production when less than ounces are used, but inhibits production when more than ounces are used. When is positive and when is negative? When is positive and when is negative?
use the definition of the derivative to prove the quotient rule
Last night Phil went jogging along Main Street. His distance from the post office t minutes after p.m. is shown in the preceding graph at the right.
(a) Give a narrative (that matches the graph) of what Phil did on his jog.
(b) Sketch a graph that represents Phil’s instantaneous velocity t minutes after p.m. Make sure you label the tick marks on the vertical axis as accurately as you can.
(c) When was Phil jogging the fastest? The slowest? When was he the farthest away from the post office? The closest to the post office?
Each graph in Exercises 31–34 can be thought of as the associated slope function f' for some unknown function f. In each case sketch a possible graph of f.
