Homework Statement



find the instantaneous velocity at 2.00s

Homework Equations



x=9.75+1.50t3

The Attempt at a Solution



I know that

lim x/t = dx/dt
t-0

So how do I go about solving the differentials.. basically I need a whole course on limits and differentials but i think if you show me how to get the answer i can learn quickly. Thanks

See http://www.math.hmc.edu/calculus/tutorials/limit_definition/ and http://www.math.hmc.edu/calculus/tutorials/limits/ for a basic introduction to limits and derivatives.
