Answer:

0.10 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph appears to be linear, so the velocity is constant and is represented by the slope of the graph. The slope can be calculating by taking any two points and inputting them into the equation:
(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) which is essentially rise/run. In this case the slope is really easy to calculate taking the two points of (0, 0) and (10, 1). In this case you can easily see the rise is 1 and the run is 10. So the slope is 1/10. So the average velocity of the object was 0.10 m/s or 1/10 m/s
