t=0\,\text{s}

, a particle is located at the point

(2.0\,\text{m},\,1.0\,\text{m})

and has a velocity of

(1.0\,\text{m/s},\,-0.50\,\text{m/s})

. Four seconds later, the particle is at

(10.0\,\text{m},\,5.0\,\text{m})

. If the acceleration is constant, determine the

x

- and

y

-components of the particle’s average acceleration vector. Express each component with the correct units.
