17.8 Exercises 17.1 A ball is thrown upward. The data below give its height y above the ground in meters at time t in seconds. Estimate values for the average velocity on the intervals [0, 1], [2, 3], and [4, 5]. to 1 2 3 4 5 2 30 47 54 50 35 17.2 A table of data is given below. Estimate values for the average rate of change of y at each of the x-values given (except x = 0.0 and x = 1.0). Use the average of two difference quotients for each estimate. Where is the rate of change negative? Where is the rate of change the greatest? x 1 y 0.0 17 0.1 13 0.2 11 0.3 9 0.4 6 0.5 11 0.6 15 0.7 27 0.8 30 0.9 22 1.0 19 17.3 In [56], Reis et al. used slow-motion videos to collect time-series data on the vertical position of a cat's tongue as it drank water in an effort to better understand the kinemat- ics (i.e., motion of a cat's tongue while it laps up water.
