Topic 1.1: Introducing Calculus: Can Change Occur at an Instant?
Learning Objective: CHA-1.A
Interpret the rate of change at an instant in terms of average rates of change over intervals containing that instant.
Essential Knowledge: CHA-1.A.1
Calculus uses limits to understand and model dynamic change.
Essential Knowledge: CHA-1.A.2
Because an average rate of change divides the change in one variable by the change in another, the average rate of change is undefined at a point where the change in the independent variable would be zero.
Essential Knowledge: CHA-1.A.3
The limit concept allows us to define instantaneous rate of change in terms of average rates of change.
