Use a graph of the sequence to decide whether the sequence is convergent or divergent. If the sequence is convergent, guess the value of the limit from the graph and then prove your guess.

Solution Summary: The author determines whether the sequence is convergent or divergent by guessing the value of the limit.

A slider in a machine moves along a fixed straight rod. Its
distance x cm along the rod is given below for various values of the time. Find the
velocity and acceleration of the slider when t = 0.3 seconds.

On the interval (1≤x≤3).(taking h=0.5).
Consider the function f(x) = x²-1.
(a) Find the instantaneous rate of change of f(x) at x=1 using the definition of the derivative.
Show all your steps clearly.
(b) Sketch the graph of f(x) around x = 1. Draw the secant line passing through the points on the
graph where x 1 and x->
1+h (for a small positive value of h, illustrate conceptually). Then,
draw the tangent line to the graph at x=1. Explain how the slope of the tangent line relates to the
value you found in part (a).
(c) In a few sentences, explain what the instantaneous rate of change of f(x) at x = 1 represents in
the context of the graph of f(x). How does the rate of change of this function vary at different
points?
