A girl walked for 30 minutes. She noticed that she traveled farther in the first 15 minutes of her walk than in the second 15 minutes. What can she conclude about her walk?

• She walked over many hills.
• Her average speed was faster during the first half of her walk.
• She walked in two different directions.
• She was walking at a constant speed.

Which best describes the speed of a ball as it is thrown straight up into the air and comes back down?

• The ball goes up at a constant speed, stops, then comes down at a constant
  speed.
• The ball goes up at a constant speed, stops, and increases speed as it comes
  down.
• The ball goes slower and slower as it goes up, stops, and then goes faster
  and faster as it comes down.
• The ball goes slower and slower as it goes up, stops, and then comes down
  at a constant speed.
