Solution
y = 16x^2
velocity : dy/dx = 32x
a) Avg velocity x = 2 to x = 3 seconds
y1 = 16(2)^2 = 64 ft ; y2 = 16(3)^2 = 144 ft
Avg velocity x = 2 to x = 3 seconds = ( y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = ( 144 - 64)/(3 -2) = 80 ft/sec
b) Avg velocity from x = 2 sec . to x = 2 + h sec.
Avg. vel = (16(2+h)^2 - 16(4) )/( 2 +h - 2)
= [ 16( 4 +h^2 + 4h - 64 ]/h
= ( 16h^2 +64h)/h
= 16h + 64
C) As h ---> 0 , Avg velocity = 16*0 + 64 = 64 ft/sec
D) We can as h ---> 0 Avg velocity = derivative velocity = 32*2 = 64 ft/sec
