Calculus - The Tangent And Velocity Problems

This video shows how to find the slope of the tangent line and instantaneous velocity. We also find the equation of the tangent line to the curve. And we look average velocity. It is a brief introduction to the concept of limits. It is usually the first section you will cover when you start a calculus class.

Very helpful. Cowboy accents are easier to follow than eastern ones.

Best video on this BY FAR. I watched a few other videos pertaining to this exact material, with the same exact problems and was still feeling lost. Your attention to detail and explanations surpassed everyone else's on the subject, THANK YOU!

Today is my first day of calculus 1 and this is the exact thing we covered the text book (no review and the class is very teach yourself all online) I'm happy I found this video or I would of already been lost on day 1. Thank you so much for helping it make more sense.

Crazy how far some good explanation goes! My current professor wrote much of what you wrote in the video but does not explain any of it! This video helped so much, thank you!

This was AMAZING! such simple explanation with real world applications and I just can't thank you enough! I was feeling lost after my professor explained this exact class using the same examples and It just didn't make sense but you helped the light bulb go on!

You explained this far better than my professor... but to be fair, it is calculus over a summer semester lol. THANK YOU SO MUCH THIS HELPS ME IN SO MANY WAYS YOU DONT UNDERSTAND

[luisramos]

VERY GOOD EXPLAINING THIS VIDEO, AND THE WAY YOU TEACH, THANK YOU SO MUCH. I WISH YOU WAS MY PROFESSOR.

thank you very much you explained it slowly and clearly in a calm spirit tnx

Thank you for helping me study for chapter 2.1 in my calculus class. I took very good notes thanks to you and this video!

[skjamilahemad]

are your calculus lectures from James Stewart calculus BTW NICE WAY OF PLEASE CONTINUE THIS CALCULUS SERIES

[lolk]

you taught me more in 30 mins than my teacher could teach in a whole class

[envy-my-wishes]

it took me 2 weeks to understand 30 mins worth of Tangent and Velocity problems T-T

[doanerific]

The fact that the last question was my HW problem that I was stuck on. What are the odds? LOL! Thank you so much!

This channel is gold . you got a new subscriber

[augustineemenalo]

Just saved me hours of work! Thank you thank you thank you!!!

[ConfeciousKubayi]

thank you, the video really helped me out a lot,

[darrenfrancis]

was the instantaneous velocity on the last problem meant to be positive or negative??

[MasterNugget]

I know I’m kinda late but this is the best video ever, my dam teacher just expects me to know how to do this in the first week without even teaching us about this. Thanks for the help 🫡

how did he get the slope to be 2 (M=2), he plugged in 1 instead of the X so that would make it 1^2 - 1 / 1-1 which is 0/0.

very helpful video... wish i watched it before my quiz not afer lol
