match a graph with the story below.Writte the letter of the graph that corresponds with the story.Explain your answer.1. Opposite Tom’s home is a hill. Tom climbed slowly up the hill, walked across the top, and then ran quickly down the other side.2. Tom skateboarded from his house, gradually building up speed. He slowed down to avoid some rough ground, but then speeded up again.3. Tom walked slowly along the road, stopped to look at his watch, realized he was late, and then started running.4. This graph is just plain wrong. How can Tom be in two places at once?5. After the party, Tom walked slowly all the way home.

Respuesta :

1. D

This graph shows an increase in speed. At first it's slow (Tom climbing up the hill), then it's a little faster (Tom walking across the top) and then it increases more (Tom running down the hill)

2. F

This graph shows a gradual increase of speed, then the speed it's almost zero -which means that in a long interval of time Tom did very little distance- and then the speed goes up again.

3. C

In this story, Tom stopped for a moment and then sped up. In graph C there's a horizontal line at a given distance. This means that Tom stopped walking and, naturally, the time kept going on.

4. H

There's a vertical line in this graph. It means that for a given time Tom was at one distance from home and at another distance from home at the same time. That's why this graph is wrong

5. J

Distance from home = 0 means he's home. He walked all the way home, so the graph has to start at a point that's not 0 and end at distance from home = 0
