Check the picture below.
A)
well, we start off by making a table of values for the function, with a few "t" values, as you see in the picture, then graph those points to get the graph.
B)
at t = 0, h(0) = 98, and at t = 1, h(1) = 82, so it went from 98 to 82, for a difference of 16.
C)
at t = 1, h(1) = 82, and at t = 2 h(2) = 34, so it went from 82 to 34, for a difference of 48.
does it fall the same distance on both intervals? well, they're different, so nope.
The idea is to use the tangent line to at
in order to approximate
.
We have
so the linear approximation to is
Hence and
.
Then
