Problem

Consider a \piecewise-linear position-time description of a moving object given by the points (0 s,0 m)→(2 s,10 m)→(4 s,10 m)→(7 s,0 m)(0 \mathrm{~s}, 0 \mathrm{~m}) \rightarrow(2 \mathrm{~s}, 10 \mathrm{~m}) \rightarrow(4 \mathrm{~s}, 10 \mathrm{~m}) \rightarrow(7 \mathrm{~s}, 0 \mathrm{~m}) with straight-line segments between listed points. Find the average velocity during 0→20 \rightarrow 2 s.
