Topic 6.1: Exploring Accumulations of Change
Learning Objective: CHA-4.A
Interpret the meaning of areas associated with the graph of a rate of change in context.
Essential Knowledge: CHA-4.A.1
The area of the region between the graph of a rate of change function and the x axis gives the accumulation of change.
Essential Knowledge: CHA-4.A.2
In some cases, accumulation of change can be evaluated by using geometry.
Essential Knowledge: CHA-4.A.3
If a rate of change is positive (negative) over an interval, then the accumulated change is positive (negative).
Essential Knowledge: CHA-4.A.4
The unit for the area of a region defined by a rate of change is the unit for the rate of change multiplied by the unit for the independent variable.
