The function R(t)models the number of times a web server gets user hits from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on a given day. R(t) is counted in the thousands, t represents the number of hours passed since 8:00 a.m. The following applet has a graph of the function and calculates the instantaneous rate of change at different points on the graph. [The graph shows a polynomial function comparing hours since 8 a.m. on the x-axis versus hit requests in thousands of times on the y-axis. The function increases and decreases from left to right. The instantaneous rate of change at point A at open parenthesis 5 comma 10 close parenthesis is 2.25 thousand hits.]
