The problem:
A ball starts with velocity 4 cm/sec and ends with a velocity of 10 cm/sec.
• What is your best guess about the ball's average velocity?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
I believe that the balls change in velocity is 6cm/sec. This would tell me that the ball was probably rolling downwards and sped up as it got to the end of where it was going.

• Without further information, why is this just a guess?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
We were not given the average velocity or the complete distance the ball was rolling and how much time it took to get from one end to the other.

• If it takes 3 seconds to get from the first velocity to the second, then what is your best guess about how far it traveled during that time?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
I would estimate the ball to have traveled at least 20 cm in distance.
this answer requires more detail, though it's a good estimate

• At what average rate did its velocity change with respect to clock time during this interval?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
The change in distance would be 6 cm and the change in clock time would be 3 seconds. The average rate of change in velocity would be 2 cm/sec.
there is no 6 cm distance involved here; there is a 6 cm/s change in velocity
It looks like you did the right calculation, but your units aren't correct and you haven't correctly identified all your quantities.
