A certain particle is traveling through space and time. We are able to measure the position of the particle at certain time values. Although we can't measure the particle continuously, we know that the particles position function is differentiable. The table gives values of time for the differentiable function s(t) for 0≤t≤40\le t\le4. s(t) represents the position of the particle at time t.
