The table shows the distance in feet that an object falls during the first 4 seconds after it is dropped from a height of 300 feet What is the objects average s class=

Respuesta :

Answer:

D. 64 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

the average speed expressed by the function d(t) is

(d(interval end) - d(interval begin))/(interval end - interval begin)

so, in our case here

(144 - 16)/(3 - 1) = 128/2 = 64 ft/s
