A student had a toy truck that he planned to launch down a ramp, and let roll across a flat floor. He wanted to know if the truck would travel the same distance from the ramp no matter how heavy a load the truck carried. He placed one or more 500-gram blocks in the back of the truck and recorded his results. The graph below displays his results. How far will the truck most likely travel with a two-block load?

• 1 meter

• 2 meters

• 3 meters
