Answer: The objects instantaneous velocity at that point

Step-by-step explanation:

On a position versus time graph, the displacement is the vertical difference between two points and the time interval is the horizontal difference.

The ratio of displacement to time interval is the the objects instantaneous velocity at that point. This ratio is also the slope of the line.

Hence, The slope at a point on a position versus time graph of an object is the objects instantaneous velocity at that point.

Answer:

The 6 Lego kits can be selected from the 9 available Lego kits in 84 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use combinations to solve this problem.

Combination is defined as the selection of r elements from n distinct objects irrespective of the order. The objects cannot be replaced.

There are 9 Lego kits available.

And the total number of children is 6.

That is, we need to select 6 Lego kits from the 9 available Lego kits.

6 Lego kits can be selected from the 9 available Lego kits in $9\choose 6$ ways.

Solving the combination as follows:

${9\choose 6}=\frac{9!}{6!\times(9-6)!} \\=\frac{362880}{720\times6}\\ =84$

Thus, there are 84 ways to select 6 Lego kits from 9 available Lego kits.
