Unitary Method

The word “unitary” comes from the word “unit”, which means a single and complete entity. In this method, we find the value of a unit product from the given number of products, and then we solve for the other number of products.

Speed, Time, and Distance

Imagine you and 3 of your friends are planning to go to the playground at 6 in the evening. Your house is one mile away from the playground and one of your friends named Jim must start at 5 pm to reach the playground by walk. The other two friends are 3 …

Profit and Loss

The amount earned or lost on the sale of one or more items is referred to as the profit or loss on that item.

Units and Measurements

Measurements and comparisons are the foundation of science and engineering. We, therefore, need rules that tell us how things are measured and compared. For these measurements and comparisons, we perform certain experiments, and we will need the experime…

Velocity of a Ball Thrown into the Air The position function of an object moving along a straight line is given by s = f(t). The average velocity of the object over the time interval [a, b] is the average rate of change of f over [a, b]; its (instantaneous) velocity at t = a is the rate of change of f at a. A ball is thrown straight up with an initial velocity of 128 ft/sec, so that its height (in feet) after t sec is given by s = f(t) = 128t - 16t². (a) What is the average velocity of the ball over the following time intervals? [3,4] [3, 3.5] [3, 3.1] ft/sec ft/sec ft/sec (b) What is the instantaneous velocity at time t = 3? ft/sec (c) What is the instantaneous velocity at time t = 7? ft/sec Is the ball rising or falling at this time? O rising falling (d) When will the ball hit the ground? t = sec Need Help? Read It Watch It
