If an object with uniform acceleration (or deceleration) has a speed of 3ms at t=0 and moves a total of 58 m by t=6, what was the object's rate of acceleration?

a=20/9 m/s^2
a=-20/9 m/s^2

Explanation:

enter image source here
area under graph is equal displacement of 58 m
58=3+k26; 58=(3+k)3; 58=9+3k
49=3k; k=493
rate of acceleration is equal tangent of graph
a=3k6 or a=k3a
a=34936 ; a=209ms2
a=49336 ; a=209ms2
