Part F: For the segment AB in the bacterium's trajectory, calculate the y component of its velocity. Express your answer in micrometers per second.

In a previous part of the question, I already calculated that the displacement of the X-component for segment AB = 50 μm and the displacement of the Y-component for segment AB = 10 μm.

When I solved, I got that the answer was 4, so I am not sure where the decimals came from in the answer denoted as correct. Please explain each step!
