1. Submit one real-world application and the complete solution that each requires concepts in Calculus I in order to solve.

2. The real-world application and its solution must be original (your own work) and/or cited if other work was adapted. You may not simply copy or modify an existing application and/or solution.

Note: Textbook word problems are NOT an acceptable applied project.

3. Use APA style to cite any references (websites, books, journals, etc...) that are used to inspire your problems (and/or solutions). Please see https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/01/ for APA guidelines / online manual.

4. These real-world applications should be related to current events and should clearly demonstrate concepts in covered in our Calculus I.

5. Your grade for this project will be based on (a) originality, (b) accuracy of problem and its solution, (c) relevancy to current events, and (d) relevance and clear connection to concepts addressed in our Calculus I course.

Appropriate topics would include / involve rates of change, velocity, acceleration, changing areas or volumes, topics involving maxima & minima, etc. The example given involved a bridge design. You are required to solve the actual problem that do decide to use, so you are looking to be able to take a derivative or integral to evaluate something. Consider all the given (what is known, or can be measured) that help / contribute to solving or evaluating your problem of choice.
You are expected to research, apply what we have learned in class, to come up with a current event type, calculus I appropriate topic on your own to solve, this problem is not given to you.
