Answer:
a = (v2 - v1) / t
From A to B (8 - 4) m/s / 1 s = 4 m / s^2
From A to D ( 7 - 4) m/s / 5 s = .6 m / s^2
Note these equations hold for "uniform" values
They say nothing about the acceleration at intermediate points - the equation just says that his average speed increased from 4 m/s to 7 m/s during a 5 sec period
The answer to your question is OPTION B
