In this lesson we learn about rates of change. More specifically, we look at position functions and how to find average velocity and instantaneous velocity. We learn how the velocity function is the derivative of the position function and can be used to find the instantaneous velocity at a particular point in time.

This course is designed to help students understand the concepts of calculus at a grounded level. No long, boring, and unnecessary explanations, just what you need to know at a reasonable and digestible pace, with each lesson under 20 minutes!

Calculus requires a solid understanding of precalculus and algebra concepts and techniques including factoring, equation manipulation, trigonometric equations, logarithms, finding slope, graphing, and many more. If you are not familiar with these prerequisite topics, be sure to learn them first!
