Mastering the calculus of change through the 2018 AP exam
In short: This instructional video breaks down a specific free response question from the 2018 Calculus AB exam. You will learn to navigate the relationship between average rates of change and the mechanics of first derivatives.
The video guides viewers through three essential calculus operations: calculating the average rate of change over a specific interval, applying the product rule to find the equation for a first derivative, and using that derivative to find the slope of a tangent line at a particular point on a graph.
As part of Khan Academy's broader mission to provide free, world-class education, this lesson serves as a practical application of core mathematical principles used in advanced placement testing.
