The velocity of a turtle is recorded at 1 minute intervals (in meters per second). use the right-endpoint approximation to estimate the total distance the turtle travelled during the 5 seconds recorded. t (sec): 0 1 2 3 4 5v(t): 0.078 0.83 0.75 0.98 0.853 0.425

The total distance that the turtle traveled during the 5 seconds recorded is

Step-by-step explanation:

To estimate distance traveled of an object moving in a straight line over a period of time, from discrete data on the velocity of the object, we use a Riemann Sum. If we have a table of values

where , then we can approximate the displacement on the interval by .

Therefore the distance traveled of the object over the time interval can be approximated by

This is the right endpoint approximation.

We are given a table of values for v(t)

Applying the right endpoint approximation formula we get,

The total distance that the turtle traveled during the 5 seconds recorded is

6,250

step-by-step explanation:

to get the area, multiply 360 by 160.(57,600)

to find out how many bags of fertilizer it will take, first figure out how many square feet one bag can hold. divide 1000 by 8(125) to get the unit rate(how many square feet one pound of fertilizer can hold)and multiply it by 50(6250). if i haven't made a mistake, that is the answer.
