Answer:

0.83m/s forward

Explanation:

Velocity is the displacement divided by time.

  Velocity  = [tex]\frac{displacment}{time}[/tex]

 Displacement is the distance moved in a specific direction;

         → 6meters forward  

         ← 3meters backwards

        → 7 meters forward

 Net displacement =7m  + 3m = 10m forward

 So;

   Velocity  = [tex]\frac{10}{12}[/tex] = 0.83m/s forward
