At t1, Car A and car B are each located at position xo moving forward at speed v. At t2, car A is located at position 2xo moving forward at speed 3v, while car B is located at position 2xo but is moving backward at speed v. Is the average velocity of car A between t1 and t2greater than, less than, or equal to the average velocity of car B between t1 and t2?

the average velocity of car A between t1 and t2greater is greater than the average velocity of B berween t1 and t2

Explanation:

Velocity is displacement over time,

Displacement is the distance covered relative to the initial starting position

For A:

at time ti, A moved from Xo to 2Xo, displacement is 2Xo.

at time t2 a moves with speed 3V, hence, his new position will be 3Xo from 2Xo which will be at 5Xo. A's displacement is 5Xo from starting point.

For B:

at time ti, B moved from Xo to 2Xo, displacement is 2Xo.

at time t2 a moves with speed V in the opposite position so he'll be back to his starting point, hence, his new position will be at Xo. A's displacement is 0 from his starting point.

the answer is to check all of them! they all apply well at least i think so!
