13 - 20.  Related Rate Problem:  There are 8 steps.  Each step is worth 5 points.

 

A girl is reeling in her kite string at 4ft/second.  If the kite is travelling along remaining at the same altitude of 40 ft above the ground as it is being reeled in, how fast is it moving horizontally at the instant the string is 50 ft long?

1. Do you really understand the definition of a derivative?  Here's a test to see!  Given that Dx (ex) = ex,  if f(x) = ex, then what can you conclude about the following limit ?

 =  ?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2.  Do you really  understand the rules for exponents?  Do you really understand the chain rule?  Here's a test to see!  Find y ' (x) if
