Interpreting Distance Time Graphs

Interpreting Distance Time Graphs

CO: TEK 6.8D: Measure and graph changes in motion.

LO: I will learn how to interpret Distance Time Graphs.

When you analyze the graph, you will notice that Edward stopped from 10 to 11:30 am

When you analyze the graph, you will notice that the object traveled at a constant speed between points A and B

When you analyze the graph, you will notice that Leroy's path was faster than the other two runners.

Let's Practice

Multiple Choice

• A

• B

• C

Multiple Choice

The car is traveling at constant speed in scenario-

• A

• B

Multiple Choice

How far was Edward from home when he visited Nicola?

• 20 MILES

• 30 MILES

• 40 MILES

Multiple Choice

HOW LONG DID EDWARD STOP FOR?

• 1 HOUR AND 30 MINUTES

• 2 HOURS

• 2 HOURS AND 30 MINUTES

Multiple Choice

WHAT WAS EDWARD'S AVERAGE SPEED? (HINT: IT TOOK EDWARD 5 HOURS TO GET TO HIS DESTINATION)

***Remember to use the formula

AVERAGE SPEED = TOTAL DISTANCE/TOTAL TIME

• .0625 MILES PER HOUR

• 16 MILES/HOUR

• 6.15 MILES/HOUR
