Find the derivatives of the functions in Exercises 21–46. Keep in mind that it may be convenient to do some preliminary algebra before differentiating.
A bowling ball dropped from a height of feet will be feet from the ground after seconds. Use a sequence of average velocities to estimate the instantaneous velocities described below:
After seconds, with
For each function graphed in Exercises 65-68, determine the values of at which fails to be continuous and/or differentiable. At such points, determine any left or right continuity or differentiability. Sketch secant lines supporting your answers.

In Exercises 69–80, determine whether or not is continuous and/or differentiable at the given value of . If not, determine any left or right continuity or differentiability. For the last four functions, use graphs instead of the definition of the derivative.
In Exercises 69–80, determine whether or not f is continuous and/or differentiable at the given value of x. If not, determine any left or right continuity or differentiability. For the last four functions, use graphs instead of the definition of the derivative.
