A car, initially at rest, moves along a straight road with constant acceleration such that it attains a velocity of 60 ft/s when s = 150 ft. Then after being subjected to another constant acceleration, it attains a final velocity of 100 ft/s when s = 325 ft. Determine the average velocity and average acceleration of the car for the entire 325-ft displacement.

A:
vavg = 80.0 ft/s, aavg = 15.15 ft/s2
B:
vavg = 45.2 ft/s, aavg = 13.91 ft/s2
C:
vavg = 80.0 ft/s, aavg = 12.57 ft/s2
D:
vavg = 55.0 ft/s, aavg = 15.15 ft/s2
