What is the formula for ‘average speed’?

What is the formula for ‘average velocity’?

What is meant by term ‘acceleration’?
Acceleration is a measure of how much velocity is changing. This means I can affect both the speed and direction of motion.
What is the unit of acceleration?
ms-2
What is the formula for ‘acceleration’?

What can be found using gradient of velocity-time graph?
Acceleration
What can be found underneath a velocity-time graph? (taking area below the x-axis to have a negative sign)
