nope

curry · Answer

well if you are looking it at in the simple way then yes but if its more detalied then no because velocity is vector that uses distance also

anonymous · Answer

average velocity is a the slope of  line from the start to the end

anonymous · Answer

no matter if it's curved u still draw a straight line and calculate slope of it

anonymous · Answer

You question is extremely general, there are 

1)  Instantaneous Velocity  = Velocity at instant in time=    dp/dt

2)  Average Velocity         =   Distance/Time      

3)   Speed                            =    Magnitude of veocity

anonymous · Answer

Yes

anonymous · Answer

i was talking in graphical terms

curry · Answer

well thats if u use line of best fit

anonymous · Answer

avg velocity is not distance/time it is displacement/time

anonymous · Answer

yes most highschool math uses line of best fit

anonymous · Answer

^ yeah, displacement
