- For this assignment, we had to complete the worksheets our teacher handed out. She condensed the lesson into notes and wrote a practice problem for us to attempt to solve. This lesson explained the speed and velocity word problems using integrals.
- This assignment helped me understand that math is also connected to real life situations. If someone wants to know the speed and velocity of an object, then they can easily use this lesson for help.
- I now know how to use integrals in word problems that involve speed and velocity. I now know how to use calculus into everyday situations. I now know that velocity and speed both have integrals that can be used to solve the actual speed and velocity of an object.
- For this assignment, we had to complete the given problems of the worksheet with the person that sits next to you. We couldn't ask for help from anyone else other than our partner because this was an individual assignment between two people. We had to find the area of the shaded regions with the given function and restricted domain. To do this, we used our geometric formulas such as the formula for the area of a triangle which is 1/2bh.
- This assignment helped us understand the lesson more than what the teacher lectured. This assignment is also a hands-on activity where physically solving the problem will help us get a better idea about the entire lesson.
- I now know how to use integrals to solve the speed, height, and velocity of objects in a given problem. I now know that setting s"(t) equal to the integral of s'(t) will help us find the equation for s'(t) which helps us find the position function.
