A boat leaves a dock at a bearing of N 42 ° W and travels 24 mph for 1 hr . The boat then makes a 90 ° left turn and travels 8 mi to its destination. a. Find the exact distance from the dock to the boat's destination. b. Find the bearing required to locate the boat from the dock. Round to the nearest degree.

17. Suppose we know that the graph below is the graph of a solution to dy/dt = f(t).
(a) How much of the slope field can
you sketch from this information?
[Hint: Note that the differential
equation depends only on t.]
(b) What can you say about the solu-
tion with y(0) = 2? (For example,
can you sketch the graph of this so-
lution?)

(b) Find the (instantaneous) rate of change of y at x = 5.
In the previous part, we found the average rate of change for several intervals of decreasing size starting at x = 5. The instantaneous rate of
change of fat x = 5 is the limit of the average rate of change over the interval [x, x + h] as h approaches 0. This is given by the derivative in the
following limit.

f(x + h) − f(x)
h
The first step to find this limit is to compute f(x + h). Recall that this means replacing the input variable x with the expression x + h in the rule
defining f.
f(x + h) = (x + h)² - 5(x+ h)

The second step for finding the derivative of fat x is to find the difference f(x + h) − f(x).
