Question

3. Describe the steps to be followed to draw a
distance-time graph​

Answer 1

Hola

YOU WILL NEED: A ruler, graph paper or a whiteboard and some pens. ...

STEP 1 - Write the key information from the question in a table like- Include 2 columns (the total time and total distance) and 4 rows (home, walk to friend’s, stay at friend’s and skate to shop). This is all of the key information!

STEP 2- Draw a graph with two axes: total time (x axis) and total distance (y axis). Label the axes.

STEP 3 - Plot the points from the table. For the walk to friend’s section of the journey plot a point at 10 on the x axis and 1000 on the y axis (10,1000), then (15,1000) and (20, 2000).

STEP 4- So, how far had you travelled after 18 minutes? Find 18 on the x axis and draw a vertical line to the graph, from here draw a horizontal line to the y axis. This will be your answer. It is 1600 metres.
