    The rate of change of d (t) at t = 2 and t = 6 is the ratio between the change of distance (difference between the distances) to the time elapsed. That is,

    r = (576 - 64) / (6 - 2) = 128 ft / s

    The rate of change is equal to 128 ft/s and this represents the average speed at this time interval.
