PLEASE HELP ASAP!!

During a soccer game, the goalie kicks the ball out toward the other end of the field. It travels 60 yards in 8 seconds before landing on the ground. What is the velocity of the ball?

Velocity is displacement over time, so do 60/8 to get 7.5 yards per second, and remember to add the direction the ball is traveling in.
