First, you will need to find the percentage of shots made for each person, or you can find the least common denominator. This is because it makes it easier to see how the numbers compare to each other in size. You can find the percentage of shots made by looking at how many shots a person made and dividing it by the total shots that person made, which us the denominator. Then, you would take the decimal and move it two places to the right. Once you find the percentages of all three people, you can then compare the percentages to each other. In this case, the higher the percentage, the better the shooter that person is.

I am Lyosha [343]
From an acceleration-time graph, you can work out the area under the graph to find the velocity. There are two triangles on the graph as shown below. The total area of the triangles are

\frac{(10)(10)}{2}+ \frac{(20)(20)}{2}=250 ft/sec^{2}

Hence, the distance is 250×30=7500 ft
