    38 m/s

    43 m/s

    Explanation:

    x = 18t + 5.0t²

    The instantaneous velocity is the first derivative:

    v = 18 + 10. t

    At t = 2.0:

    v = 18 + 10. (2.0)

    v = 38 m/s

    The average velocity is the change in position over change in time.

    v = Δx / Δt

    v = [ (18t₂ + 5.0t₂²) - (18t₁ + 5.0t₁²) ] / (t₂ - t₁)

    Between t = 2.0 and t = 3.0:

    v = [ (18 (3.0) + 5.0 (3.0) ²) - (18 (2.0) + 5.0 (2.0) ²) ] / (3.0 - 2.0)

    v = [ (54 + 45) - (36 + 20.) ] / 1.0

    v = 99 - 56

    v = 43 m/s
