Answer 2

To calculate the speed in the mentioned interval, what we must do is calculate the average rate of change.

By definition, the average rate of change is given by:

`AVR = (r(t2) - r(t1))/(t2 - t1)`

Substituting values we have:

`AVR = (4.2 - 2.8)/(0.084 - 0.051)`

We rewrite:

`AVR = 42.4 (Km)/(h)`

Answer:

The average speed between 2.8 km and 4.2 km of the bus is:

`AVR = 42.4 (Km)/(h)`
