When you graph an equation, it should be dependent variable against the independent variable. For this problem, the independent variable is the time, so this is along the x-axis. The dependent variable is d, so this is along the y-axis. Since the slope is Δy/Δx, then it is also equivalent to Δd/Δt. Therefore, the answer is B.
