The problem:

"A point moves in a straight line during the time from t=0 to t=3,
according to the law s=120t - 16t**2.  Find the average value of the
velocity with respect to the DISTANCE s during the three seconds."

Can anyone help with this.  I know the answer is 82 and 2/3, but I don't
understand how to get there.
Thanks in advance.
