Question
1. During a rainy spring in the city of Fort Collins, Colorado, the following depth readings were recorded in
Horsetooth Reservoir. Use the data to answer the questions that follow.
(a) Find the average rate of change of the water depth between t = 60 and t = 80 days. Circle your final
answer, and include the appropriate units.
(b) According to the data in the chart, between what days did the depth of the reservoir increase the
fastest? Compute this rate of depth increase, including units.
(c) Estimate the instantaneous rate of change of the water depth at t = 60 days. Include appropriate units.
t (time in days)
D (depth in feet)
2. The height of a golf ball after t seconds is given by s(t) = 24t - 4.9t² meters.
(a) Find the average (vertical) velocity of the golf ball on the time interval 0 ≤ t ≤ 2 seconds.
(b) Find the average (vertical) velocity of the golf ball on the time interval 2.5 ≤ t ≤ 4 seconds.
