The function​ s(t) represents the position of an object at time t moving along a line. Suppose s (1 )equals 114s(1)=114 and s (6 )equals 254s(6)=254. Find the average velocity of the object over the interval of time [1 comma 6 ][1,6].

Answer:

Average velocity is 28 units along the line.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here given that s(1) = 114 and s(6) = 254

We need to find average velocity between [1,6],

Average velocity is the ratio of displacement and time,

Displacement = s(6)-s(1) = 254 - 114 = 140 units

Time = 6 - 1 = 5 units


\texttt{Average velocity = }(140)/(5)=28units

Average velocity is 28 units along the line.
