SOLUTION: A particle is moving with velocity v(t) = t2 � 9t + 18 with distance, s measured in meters, left or right of zero, and t measured in seconds, with t between 0 and 8 seconds inclusi

Question 1029785: A particle is moving with velocity v(t) = t2 � 9t + 18 with distance, s measured in meters, left or right of zero, and t measured in seconds, with t between 0 and 8 seconds inclusive. The position at time t = 0 sec is 1 meter right of zero, that is, s(0) = 1.
what is:
The average velocity over the interval 0 to 8 seconds
&
The instantaneous velocity and speed at time 5 secs

Average velocity over the interval 0 to 8 seconds =
= meters per second.
The instantaneous velocity = ==>The instantaneous velocity and speed at time 5 secs is 2*5 - 9 = 1 meter per second.
