    Plotting (x-xi)/t vs t to find acceleration

    thank you for the quick response. actually the table that i have does not have a column for deltaX, the third column is for position/time (m/s) so doesn't that column already give me the velocity? but are you saying for me to construct a (x-xi)/t VS. t graph i have to take the second time...
