13-128.
Steady Freddy always drives his car at a constant rate of
The velocity is the slope (or rate of change) or the position function.
Position can be determined by calculating the area under the curve of a velocity function.
Write an equation for Freddy’s velocity as a function of time. Sketch a graph of this function.
How far has Freddy traveled after
hour? After hours? After hours? Using your answers to part (b), what is Freddy’s position as a function of time?
How is Freddy’s position function related to the graph of Freddy’s velocity function?
How is Freddy’s velocity function related to his position function?
