Answer:

3m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope on a velocity time graph represents the acceleration, so if you simply use the slope formula, you can find the acceleration between those two points.

m=rise/run

m=(60-15)/(20-5)

m=45/15

m=3 m/s ² squared (therefore this is your constant acceleration from those two points).
