The position of an object at time t is given by s(t) = -4 - 2t. find the instantaneous velocity at t = 6 by finding the derivative.

The instantaneous velocity s(6) = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The position of an object at time t is given by s(t) = -4 - 2t  (1)

Now, finding the derivative of the given time function s(t)

Now, Differentiating (1) with respect to t

⇒ s'(t) = -2

Since, The differentiating function is constant

At t = 6, The instantaneous velocity s(6) = -2
