Average Velocity Exercise: Solution

Here is the Solution

Let's assume that Joe while jogging, during the first two hours of his exercise,
he ran a distance from work started from 0 to 8 miles, while the time in hours went from 0 to 2.
Since velocity represents a change in displacement divided by a change in time, the average velocity will be calculated using the formula:
(8 − 0) / (2 − 0) = 4 mph.

During the next three hours, the distance from your work went from 8 to 23 while the time went from 1 to 4. Hence, the average velocity equals:
(23 − 8) / (4 − 1) = 5 mph
