How Do You Calculate Instantaneous Acceleration Without Calculus?

[slappy]

Homework Statement

Find the instantaneous acceleration at 10s (see graph in attachment)

Homework Equations

a = dv/dt

dt----0

The Attempt at a Solution

I am taking an algebra based physics class and have never taken calculus before -_-
I tried 0.0 and 1.0 so far
Help on this problem would be very appreciated.

So what's the slope of the velocity curve at t = 10 seconds?

Is it 1.6?

edit: got it, was overthinking this problem lol

Is it 1.6?

You have to ask? You have the graph, surely you can calculate the slope from it.
