What you need to do is set up and equation in y=mx+b form. Your b is the starting speed, m is the rate that you are going to find, and y and x are points on your line. Plug your b in and then plug other points to find the m

speed = distance/time

speed = 150/2 = 75
or 
speed = 300/4 = 75

no matter what point you pick, the average speed wil be 75 mph
