If a rock is thrown upward on the planet Mars with a velocity of 13 m/s, its height in meters t seconds later is given by y = 13t - 1.86t2.
(a) Find the average velocity over the given time intervals.
(i) [1, 2]
(ii) [1, 1.5]
(iii) [1, 1.1]
(iv) [1, 1.01]
(v) [1, 1.001]
(b) Estimate the instantaneous velocity when t = 1.
