What is the x-component of the velocity (in m/s) for the object having the x(t) graph shown above?

When taking the graphinto sonsideration we make the table values
| Postion | Time |
|---|---|
| 0.1 | 6 |
| 0.5 | 5 |
| 0.8 | 4 |
| 1.1 | 3 |
| 1.4 | 2 |
| 1.7 | 1 |
| 2 | 0 |
Taking the velocity fromthe change in position and changein time we get it as
\frac{d x}{c d}=\frac{2-1.7}{0-1}
=-0.3 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}
