The problem:
A ball is moving at 10 cm/s when clock time is 4 seconds, and at 40 cm/s when clock time is 9 seconds.
• Sketch a v vs. t graph and represent these two events by the points (4 sec, 10 cm/s) and (9 s, 40 cm/s).

• Sketch a straight line segment between these points.
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
#$&*
• What are the rise, run and slope of this segment?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
The rise of the segment is 30 and the run is 6. These quantities combine to make the slope 6.

• What is the area of the graph beneath this segment?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
The area is 65.

@& Both slope and area have units, which need to be included.
The number that goes with the area is not 65. I can't tell how you got that.
You need to at least briefly indicate how you have obtained your quantities, and you do need to use units with every quantity that has units. That might seem like a pain, but in the long run it saves time and helps avoid errors.*@
