In a five-hour trip you traveled 300 miles. What was the average velocity for the whole trip?
The average velocity is nothing else that the average rate of change of the distance with respect to time.
This idea will be used to discussed the idea of instantaneous velocity as well as the instantaneous
rate of change of any continuous function

Sided Average velocityHow does the police determine your velocity after 2 seconds?
Geometrically, this number represents the slope of the line segment passing through the points (2,400) and (4,1600).
Slope of the secant line is

Since it is said that the instantaneous velocity at t=2 is 400.
Instantaneous velocity (or simply velocity) at t=2 is the instantaneous rate of change of the distance function at t=2.

Geometric Interpretation of the Instantaneous Velocity at t=2
The instantaneous velocity at t=2, v(2) is the slope of the tangent line to the function d=d(t) at
t=2.
