ap calculus bc - q&a: related rates, mvt & optimization
curriculum note
This video was recorded during COVID-19 (spring 2020) and references a modified exam format (45-minute online test, Unit 8 dropped for AB, Units 9ā10 largely dropped for BC) that no longer applies to the current AP Calculus exam. The mathematical content on related rates, MVT, and optimization remains valid.
