    For question 1, can't you plug in the 10 for t?
    Is t being measured in mins or sec?

    Re: Calculus: Derivatives -help!

    How fast is the water running at the end of 10min? vinstant = -7 999.8 gallons/min
    What is the average rate at which the water flows out during the first 10 min? vavg = -10 000 gallons/min

    Re: Calculus: Derivatives -help!

    Q(t) = 200(30-t)^2
    Q'(t)= 400(30-t)(1) = 12000-400t
    plug in t=10
    12000-400(10) = 12000-4000 = 8000/s = rate of change

    that's what i think i was never good at math though :/
