1. Welcome!
My name is Mr. BIANCO
This class is AP Calculus BC
Please take a seat, grab a
piece of paper and make a
name plate, don’t talk, and we
will get to work shortly!
2. Rule for Mr. Bianco’s class room

seat working on the drill when the bell rings
• No eating or drinking is allowed

• No cell phones, iPods, headphones, or electric
devices
• No talking while the teacher or another
student is talking/explaining information.

2y + z = 20, what is the
value of y?
A) 5 B) 8 C) 10 D) 15
E) It cannot be determined from
the information given.
9. Can you find . . .
1. A particle moves along the x-axis so that
its velocity at any time t> 0 is given by v(t)
= 3t2 -2t-1. The position x(t) is 5 for t = 2
a) Write a polynomial expression for the position
of the particle at any time t > 0
b) For what values of t, 0 < t < 3 is the particle’s
instantaneous velocity the same as its
average velocity on the closed interval [0,3]
c) Find the total distance traveled by the particle
from t = 0 until t = 3
10. Some questions
1. How well did you do on the Calc AB
exam? If you didn’t take the exam
please explain why.
2. What are your expectations of this
class?
3. Do you love math? If so why or why
