Variable acceleration example

A particle moves on the x-axis with acceleration given by a = 2t - 5 When t = 0, v = 4 and x = 1 Find expressions for its velocity (v) and position (x) at time t Then find times when instantaneously at rest, distance between these two points and distance travelled in first 3 seconds.
