If the velocity v of a particle moving along a straight line decreases linearly with its displacement

Question:

If the velocity v of a particle moving along a straight line decreases linearly with its displacement s from 20 m/s to a value approaching zero at s = 30 m, determine the acceleration a of the particle when s = 15 m and show that the particle never reaches the 30-m displacement.
