[SOLVED]

Each student will be using a DIFFERENT INTERVAL X +/- #. Directions: Read, ponder View Full Description Rate of Change WITHOUT derivatives PROBLEM: Given f(x)=.04(8x-x2) Find the rate of change of elevation when x = 2 WITHOUT taking a derivatives directly. Instead use find the slope between f$f(2-Delta x) t extup{ and } f(2+Delta x)f$ The first student should let f$Delta f$ x = 1 using forum title Delta x=1. Then use f(2+1) and f(2-1) to find the slope between two points (1, f(1)) and (3, f(3)). The first line of their post should be f$displaystyle Delta x=1f$ The second student should select a different value f$Delta f$ x < 1 and find the appropriate f(x+f$Delta f$ x ) and f(x-f$Delta f$ x ) to find the slope between two DIFFERENT POINTS closer to the x=2 value. Also include in your title the value of your f$Delta f$ x! The third student should select and POST their new f$Delta f$ x < the second student’s value. Again find the new appropriate f(x+f$Delta f$ x ) and f(x-f$Delta f$ x ) to find the slope between two DIFFERENT POINTS even closer to the x=2 value. Etc. When all done, post a comment on at least TWO OTHER STUDENTS’ WORK! sec 1.1, pg 47, #3
