QuestionCurrent Attempt in Progress The velocity of a car is f(t)=4tf(t)=4 t meters /sec/ \mathrm{sec}. Use a graph of f(t)f(t) to find the exact distance traveled by the car, in meters, from t=0t=0 to t=6t=6 seconds.
The distance traveled by the car is \square meters. eTextbook and Media

Studdy Solution
Evaluate the integral:
4tdt=2t2+C \int 4t \, dt = 2t^2 + C
Now, calculate the definite integral from t=0 t = 0 to t=6 t = 6 :
064tdt=[2t2]06 \int_{0}^{6} 4t \, dt = \left[ 2t^2 \right]_{0}^{6}
=2(6)22(0)2 = 2(6)^2 - 2(0)^2
=2(36)0 = 2(36) - 0
=72 = 72
The exact distance traveled by the car is:
72 meters \boxed{72} \text{ meters}
