Answer:

(B)  \displaystyle \frac{W(3.1) - W(2.9)}{0.2}

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Calculus</u>

Limits

Derivatives

  • The definition of a derivative is the slope of the tangent line.

Derivative Notation

Instantaneous Rates

  • Tangent Line: \displaystyle f'(x) = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are trying to find a <em>rate</em> at which W(t) changes, we must find the <em>derivative</em> at <em>t</em> = 3.

We are given 2 close answer choices that would have the same <em>numerical</em> answer but different <em>meanings</em>:

  1. (A)  \displaystyle  \lim_{t \to 3} W(t)
  2. (B)  \displaystyle \frac{W(3.1) - W(2.9)}{0.2}

If we look at answer choice (A), we see that our units would simply just be volume. It would not have the units of a rate of change. Yes, it may be the closest numerically correct answer, but it does not tell us the <em>rate</em> at which the volume would be changing and it is not a derivative.

If we look at answer choice (B), we see that our units would be cm³/s, and that is most certainly a rate of change. Answer choice (B) is also a <em>derivative</em> at <em>t</em> = 3, and a derivative tells us what <em>rate</em> something is changing.

∴ Answer choice (B) will give us the best estimate for the value of the instantaneous rate of change of W(t) when <em>t</em> = 3.
