Please answer correctly. Thank you!!
John is rollerblading down a long, straight path. At time zero, there is a mailbox about 1 min front of him. In the 5 s time period
that follows, John's velocity is given by the velocity versus time graph in the figure. Taking the mailbox to mark the zero
location, with positions beyond the mailbox as positive, plot his position versus time in the given position versus time graph.
