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).

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

cm/s is y and s is x

#$&*

Sketch a straight line segment between these points.

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

20 cm/s would be just over 5 s and 30 cm/s would be just under 7 seconds

#$&*

What are the rise, run and slope of this segment?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

(40-10)/(9-4) = 30/5 = 6

good, but you need to include units

#$&*

What is the area of the graph beneath this segment?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

.5(bh) b= 5 h=30

.5(5)(30) = 75

Check the link for the units, which need to be included at every step of the calculation.
