If a ball is thrown in the air with a velocity 50 ft/s, its height in feet t seconds later is given by y = 50t - 16t2. (Round your answers to one decimal place.)

Estimate the instantaneous velocity when t = 2.

What do u mean

amistre64 · Answer

i mean that if your gonna ask this type of question; you should at least have some understanding of what the answer is going to be :)

What methods do you know of that will give you the instantaneous velocity?
