4. Definition Two or more variables that vary with each other and vary with time are related rates of change.

5. Example The rate of change of the volume of water in the cone is related to the rates of change of the radius h r and the height of the water.

6. Example The rate of change of the angle of elevation of a camera photographing the ascent of a hot air balloon is related to the rate of change of the balloon’s height

7. Important Idea A rate of change of a variable with respect to time is the derivative of the variable with respect to time written as Examples:

8. Example Assume that x and y are differentiable functions of t. Find the indicated values of and for 1.Find when x =3 given =2
