EXAMPLE 4 Suppose the odometer on our car is broken and we want to estimate the distance driven over a 30 second time interval. We take the speedometer readings every five seconds and record them in the following table.Time (s) 0 5 10 15 20 25 30Velocity (mi/h) 17 19 25 27 33 30 28In order to have the time and the velocity in consistent units, let's convert the velocity readings to feet per second (1 mi/h = 52803600 ft/s). (Round your answers to the nearest whole number.)Time (s) 0 5 10 15 20 25 30Velocity (ft/s) 25 37 48 44 41
