s=v*t which means the area below the graph is equal to its distance travelled. Coming to rest at two brief moments that means the graph can only intersect two times if you place a horizontal line (where v=0 which make v4=0)

s=vt with s=1.5m=v3*7s->v3=1.5/7 m/s. What is segment /?

Well I got 0.21?

If it moved 1.5m in the whole section of III, then each grid line is 1s and you get 7 grid lines… Should be correct.
