Your first answer has an error on the first line of the answer for #64. Maybe you figured it out from looking at the 2nd line.
It should have been:
64) acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) ÷ time
minus, not divided by.
The rest looks good.

a) constant velocity
b) acceleration/deceleration (positive/negative gradient)
c) positive velocity
d) negative velocity
e) zero velocity
64) acceleration = (final velocity ÷ initial velocity) ÷ time
acceleration=(0-8.0)÷1.6
acceleration=(-8)÷1.6
acceleration=-5m/s^2
