Distance-time graphs show distance on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis. The gradient of a distance-time graph represents speed because gradient = \( \frac{\text{change in ...
Calculus is a branch of mathematics that explores variables and how they change by looking at them in infinitely small pieces called infinitesimals. Calculus, as it is practiced today, was invented in ...
\(gradient = \frac{change~in~y}{change~in~x} = \frac{change~in~distance}{change~in~time} = \frac{change~in~metres}{change~in~seconds} = m/s.\) The gradient of a ...
