what have you tried?

Well, these are questions out of a textbook and I've been going back and reading throught the sections. But, I don't think it explains it thoroughly enough, when giving an example on the type of problem of the first photo I posted, it has a value (s) that it inserts into an equation, and idk where that came from or what it is

well yeah, 5a just asks for slopes of secants for a given width
it explicitly says start at 4 and go some width
like i just wants the average rate of change on [4,4+0.1]

right ok, I see. I was just wondering where it got a number of 4.9 that it was inserting into the example for this problem, but I missed the section explaining that value and how it relates the time falling to the distance fallen, that's where I was getting a little lost
your explanation def helped me picture the graph better

ok
