Delta X means the change in distance, so it is often worded as Delta x, not d (it was in my AP Physics textbook).

Same thing for the V's. V implicitly means final velocity, while Vo ("V aught"), means initial velocity.

In other words, my equation was just as correct as yours, just harder to read.
I'm too used to seeing displacement as a different character set which is why I messed that up (too close-minded of me ). Yours works better for explanation though. My sigma equation is essentially a result of too much calculus
