The function s (t) represents the position of an object at time t moving along a line. Suppose s (1) equals 62 and s (5) equals 102. Find the average velocity of the object over the interval of time [1 comma 5 ].

v = 10

the average velocity of the object over the interval of time [1, 5 ] is 10 units per unit time

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

function s (t) represents the position of an object at time t moving along a line.

s (1) = 62 at t1 = 1

s (5) = 102 at t5 = 5

Velocity v = distance/time

Average velocity v over time t is;

v = ∆s/∆t

v = [s (5) - s (1) ]/[t5 - t1]

Substituting the given values;

v = (102 - 62) / (5 - 1)

v = 10

the average velocity of the object over the interval of time [1, 5 ] is 10 units per unit time
