Answer:
The slope of a position-time graph can be calculated as:
where
is the increment in the y-variable
is the increment in the x-variable
We can verify that the slope of this graph is actually equal to the velocity. In fact:
corresponds to the change in position, so it is the displacement,
corresponds to the change in time
, so the time interval
Therefore the slope of the graph is equal to
which corresponds to the definition of velocity.

Explanation:
Newton's 2nd Law relates the net force <em>F</em> on an object of mass <em>m </em>with the acceleration <em>a</em> it experiments by <em>F=ma.</em> In our case the net force is the friction force, since it's the only one the skier is experimenting horizontally and the vertical ones cancel out since he's not moving in that direction. Our acceleration then will be:
Also, acceleration is defined by the change of velocity in a given time t, so we have:
Since we want the change in velocity, <em>mixing both equations</em> we conclude that:
Which for our values means:
