Acceleration = (change in velocity) / (time for the change)

that's = (change in speed and its direction) / (time for the change)

Change in velocity = (ending velocity) - (starting velocity)

Change in velocity = (20 m/s west) - (15 m/s west)

Change in velocity = 5 m/s west

Acceleration = (5 m/s west) / (5 seconds)

Acceleration = 1 m/s west
