Let x be the speed.
Maximum is 65 so x needs to be less than or equal to 65.
The minimum is 45, so x also has to be greater than or equal to 45
45 <= x => 65
This depends on the equation.
The answer:
<span>the average rate of change for the first 50 seconds:
it is v= 100 m/ 50 s = 2 m/s
</span><span>Thomas speed is 2 m in each second for the first 50 seconds.
</span><span>The average rate of change for the 70 remaining seconds:
the time is between [70; 120]
so the distance is d= 200m - 40m= 160m
the average rate is
v= 160m / 70 s = 2 . 28m /s
