Answer:

D. [tex]6.0\frac{m}{s}[/tex]

Explanation:

The average speed is defined as the relationship between the displacement made by a body and the total time it took to perform it.  The formula that will allow you to calculate the average speed is: [tex]v=\frac{x}{t}[/tex] where [tex]v[/tex] is the average velocity, x is the displacement, and t is the time elapsed.

Solving the exercise with [tex]x=18m[/tex] and [tex]t=3s[/tex]

[tex]v=\frac{18m}{3s}=6.0\frac{m}{s}[/tex]

AL2006

The average SPEED is 18/3 = 6m/s.

We have no way to state the velocity, because we have no information about the direction of the motion.
