Given data find the maximum velocity in hours and maximum velocity in miles per hour?

I've just started using matlab and am having problems with this question.
Consider the following data, taken during a car trip from Salt Lake City to Los Angeles.
Time(hours) 0, 1, 2.2, 2.9, 4, 5.2, 6, 6.9, 8, 8.7, 9.7, 10
Distance(miles) 0, 75, 145, 225, 300, 380, 430, 510, 580, 635, 700, 720
The questions related to this data are: At what time did the maximum velocity occur in hours? and What is the maximum velocity in miles per hour?
If you could please include the code used to solve this that would be great. Thank You.

Hint: Velocity is change in distance divided by change in time.
