Finding Area Practice

The following four questions are based on graphs of vehicle velocity vs time. For these graphs the horizontal axis is in units of seconds and the vertical axis is in units of meters / second.

For the graph above, what was the vehicle's total displacement from t=2 to t=6?
SOLUTION: 24 meters

For the graph above, what is the vehicle's total displacement from t=2 to t=6?
SOLUTION: -16 meters

For the graph above, what is the total displacement from t=-8 to t=-2?
SOLUTION: 48 meters

For the graph above, what is the vehicle's total displacement from t=-1 to t=1?
SOLUTION: 16
