A particle moves along a line so that it's position at any time t>or = 0 is given by the function s(t)= t^2-3t+2, where s is measured in meters and t is measured in seconds.
1. Find the displacement during first 5 seconds.

How do I figure out the displacement for this portion of the problem?
 
the total displacement will be the are under the graph from t=0 to t=5
so intergrate it and substitute in t= 0 and t=5
