AP Unit 8: Applications of Integration
Find these readings by topic
This earlier reading list remains available with its complete tasks. The current book places these resources in the following topic chapters:
- Derivatives as rates of change →
Explain and estimate an instantaneous rate, decide when it exists, and interpret its signed units.
- Motion, area, and volume →
Apply accumulation to motion and geometric slices, justifying signs, boundaries, dimensions, and initial values.
Use accumulated rates, positive strip areas, and geometric slice areas to solve real problems with clear units and bounds.
Follow the topics below, then try the 30 unit problems before opening the separate step-by-step solutions.
