Average and instantaneous velocity

a. Show that if the position x of a moving point is given by a quadratic function of t, x = At2 + Bt + C, then the average velocity over any time interval [t1, t2] is equal to the instantaneous velocity at the midpoint of the time interval.

b. What is the geometric significance of the result in part (a)?
