Answer:

ds/dt =8  when t =1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

s = t^2 + 5t - 8

We want to find ds/dt

ds/dt = 2t +5

evaluated when t=1.5

ds/dt = 2(1.5) +5

ds/dt = 3+5

ds/dt =8  when t =1.5

Replace t with 1.5 seconds and solve for s:

s = 1.5^2 + 5(1.5) -8

s = 2.25+7.5-8

s= 9.75 -8

s = 1.75


Rate of change is S/t

Rate of change = 1.75 / 1.5

Rate of change of s = 1.17
