Quiz • Find the average value of the velocity function on the given interval: [ 3, 6 ] 2) Find the derivative of 3) 4) 5)
Consider the differential equation This derivative represents the slope of the function at any given values of x and y
Small line segments can be drawn to represent small sections of the slope at any given point The result is called a slope field
The solution (integral) of the differential equation represents one possible “shape” of the slope field Example: Solve the differential equation for the specific point and sketch the solution on the slope field
