Answer:

so to find the acceleration we divide the change in velocity by the time taken for it so intial velocity was 3m/s and final velocity is 10m/s. we substract 3 from 10 to get the change in velocity ie 10m/s -3m/s = 7m/s. now decide this by the time taken for it that is 4 sec as given. acceleration is 7/4 = 1.75m/s^2
