Use the definition of the derivative to find for each function in Exercises39-54
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?
For each function f and value in Exercises 35–44, use a sequence of approximations to estimate . Illustrate your work with an appropriate sequence of graphs of secant lines.
