The graph shows Jack's distance from his home compared to time. Which scenario could best fit the graph?
Jack leaves his home, walking up a hill behind his house. He stops and takes a break, then continues up the hill until he reaches the top. He then continues down the other side.
Jack and his dog leave the house jogging. They stop at the dog park for a while and then continue on around the block for a short distance before turning around and running back home.
Jack leaves his house and starts his daily run by picking up speed. He then holds a constant speed for a little while before he begins to accelerate even more. He suddenly feels a leg cramp and very quickly slows down to a stop.
Which portion of the graph shows the greatest speed?
AB
BC
CD
DE
The graph shows Rosie's speed compared to time. Which scenario best fits the graph?
Rosie sets off quickly on a run picking up speed before she holds a constant speed for a while. She then begins to slow down and then stops completely.
Rosie ran up a hill, walked across the top, and then walked back down to the other side.
Rosie left home walking fast, stopped to buy an ice cream cone, then walked at a slower pace back to her house.
Rosie increases speed slowly, then holds a constant speed, then decreases her speed quickly, coming to a complete stop.
