Mathematics: Applications and Interpretation SL
Calculus
Rates of change, derivative interpretation, optimization, area, and accumulation in applied settings.
Interpret average rate of change
Calculate and interpret average rates of change from data or models.
Interpret instantaneous rate of change
Use derivative values as instantaneous rates of change in context.
Use derivatives for optimization
Use derivative or technology information to identify maximum and minimum values.
Estimate area using numerical methods
Use trapezoidal or technology-supported area estimates in applied contexts.
Interpret accumulation from rates
Connect area under a rate graph with accumulated change in context.
