11 Calculus Concepts Section.: Instantaneous Rates of Cange 47 Section. Instantaneous Rates of Cange 1. One possible set of answers: a. A continuous grap or model is defined for all possible input values on an interval. A continuous model wit discrete interpretation as meaning for only certain input values on an interval. A continuous grap can be drawn witout lifting te pencil from te paper. A discrete grap is a scatter plot. A continuous model or grap can be used to find average or instantaneous rates of cange. Discrete data or a scatter plot can be used to find average rates of cange. b. An average rate of cange is a slope between two points. An instantaneous rate of cange is te slope at a single point on a grap. c. A secant line connects two points on a grap. A tangent line touces te grap at a point and is tilted te same way te grap is tilted at tat point.. One possible answer: Advantages: It is possible to find instantaneous rates of cange. In some cases a continuous model is useful for estimating output values between known data points. Disadvantage: A model usually gives only estimates instead of exact values. 3. Average rates of cange are slopes of secant lines. Instantaneous rates of cange are slopes of tangent lines. 4. One possible answer: A line is tangent to a curve if its slope matces te slope of te curve at te point of tangency. Te space (angle formed) between te curve and te line sould be approximately te same on eiter side of te point of tangency. Tangent lines lie above concave down curves and below concave up curves. At inflection points tangent lines cut troug te curve, lying above te concave down portion and below te concave up portion. A line is tangent if it intersects te grap in suc a way tat, wen viewed very closely, it appears to coincide (i.e., it almost coincides) wit te grap on some small interval. 5.

Te slope is negative, but increases toward zero as one moves from left to rigt. 13. Te grap sows an increasing, logistic function. Te slope is always positive. Moving from left to rigt, te slope starts close to zero, increases, and ten decreases toward zero. 14. Te grap sows a concave down, quadratic function. Moving from left to rigt, te slope starts positive and ten decreases to zero (at te relative maximum) and ten becomes more and more negative. 15. Te lines drawn at A and C are not tangent lines because tey don t follow te tilt of te curve. 16. Te line drawn at B is not a tangent line because it doesn t follow te tilt of te curve on eiter side of te inflection point. 17.

22 58 Capter : Describing Cange: Rates Calculus Concepts 1. We know tat te grap includes te points (40, 13.) and (68, 14.4). Because te average rate of cange between 1980 and 1990 is 0.19 million students per year, we know tat over te ten-year period between 1980 and 1990 te number of students declined by 0.19 million students (10 years) = 1.9 million students. Tus te point corresponding to 1990 is year (50, ) = (50, 11.3). Because tere is no tangent line at x = 50, we know te grap at tat input is eiter not continuous or else comes to a sarp point. We sow two possible graps: 13. a. It is possible for profit to be negative if costs are more tan revenue. b. It is possible for te derivative to be negative if profit declines as more sirts are sold (because te price is so low, te revenue is less tan te cost associated wit te sirt.) c. If P (00) = 1.5, te fraternity s profit is declining. In oter words, selling more sirts would result in less profit. Profit may still be positive (wic means te fraternity is making money), but te negative rate of cange indicates tey are not making te most profit possible (tey could make more money by selling fewer sirts). 14. Because M(t) is measured in members and t is measured in years, te units on d dt members per year. [ M( t)] are 15. a.

One possible answer: Te percentage cange gives te relative amount of cange in te output from an initial input value to a second input value. Te percentage rate of cange is a relative measure of te rate of cange at a particular input value in comparison to te output value at tat point. 30. One possible answer: Te slope of a tangent line can be used to estimate te function values at nearby input values. If te tangent line lies below te grap of te function, te estimate will underestimate te function value. If te tangent line lies above te grap of te function, te estimate will overestimate te function value. For te functions studied in tis text, tis metod is most accurate for input values close to te input value at te point of tangency and least accurate for input values tat are far away from te input value at te point of tangency. 31.

However, tere are many situations wen te equation of a grap is not provided and te rate of cange must be estimated grapically. 3.

Finding a slope grapically may be appropriate if all tat is needed is a quick approximation of te rate of cange at a point. If a more precise determination of te rate of cange at one single point is needed and an equation is available, it may be appropriate to find te slope at tat one point numerically, using a table of limiting values of te slopes of increasingly close secant lines. If an equation is available and te rate of cange at several different points is needed, it migt be appropriate to use an algebraic metod to find a formula for te slope. A final consideration wen coosing between te algebraic metod and te numerical metod to find slope is te difficulty involved in using te algebraic metod. We are generally limited to using te algebraic metod for linear, quadratic, or cubic functions. 4. One possible answer: In te previous section we discovered tat te line tangent to a grap at point P line is te limiting position of secant lines troug P and nearby points on te grap. In te algebraic metod, is used to denote te distance between te point of tangency x and a close point x+. Grapically, we visualize a secant line drawn between tese two points. In te last step of te four-step metod we take te limit of te slope of tis secant line as 0. Wen we numerically estimate a rate of cange, we coose points tat are increasingly closer to te point of tangency and calculate te slope of te secant line between tese close points and te point of tangency. Finally, we look at te limit of tese slopes. Capter Concept Review 1. a. i. A, B, C ii. E iii. D b. Te grap is steeper at B tan it is at A, C, or D. c.
