Exercises: Reading, Plotting and Interpreting Distance-Time Graphs

Use a data table and a graph together where given. Always calculate speed using the change in distance over the change in time for a section, not just the section's endpoint values.

Recall / Warm-Up

When plotting a point for '2 hours, 30 km' on a distance-time graph, which order do you use?

Plot (30, 2) — distance first, then time.

Plot (2, 30) — time first, then distance.

It does not matter which order you plot them in.
