Suppose a coin is dropped from the top of the Empire State building in New York, which is 1,454 feet tall. The position function for free-falling objects is:

s(t) = −16t^2 + v0t + s0
where v0 is the initial velocity and s0 is the initial position.

Find the instantaneous velocities when t =1 and t = 3.

What is the name of the theorem that says there must be at least one solution to
part D?

(I already figured out C, just can't find the theorem)

what the heck is part D?
You are probably looking for the
Intermediate Value Theorem
or the
Mean Value Theorem.
