Given : A courier-person cycles from a town to a neighboring suburban area to deliver a parcel to a merchant. His distance from the town at different times is shown by the following graph.
To Find : (a) What is the scale taken for the time on x – axis?
(b) How much time did the person take for the travel ?
Solution:
scale taken for the time on x – axis
4 units = 1 hr
1 unit = 15 mins
Place is 22 km far
person stopped between 10 to 10:30
from 8 AM to 9 AM = 10km/hr
from 9 AM to 10AM = 6 km/hr
from 10:30 AM to 11:30 AM = 6 km/he
Hence from 8 AM to 9 AM Fastest
From the graph person started at 8 AM
and travelled till 11 : 30 AM
Total Travel time = 11: 30 - 8 = 3hrs 30 mins = 3.5 hrs
Person tool 3.5 hrs for the travel
If Only time of travel to be considered
Then he was not travelling from 10 to 10:30 AM
Hence only travel time = 8 to 10 + 10:30 : 11:30
= 2 + 1
= 3 Hrs
