Question

If a distance-time graph contains the point (4, 15), what does that tell you about the runner?

Answer 1

Explanation:

It is given that there is distance time graph. The slope of any distance time graph will give the speed or velocity of the object.

In the context, it is seen that there is a point in the distance - time graph. And the values of the point in the graph is (4,15).

Now here, the distance is plotted in the  ordinate or the vertical y-axis while time is plotted in the abscissa or the horizontal x-axis.

Thus the point (4,15) tells us that the object has traveled 15 units in time equal to 4 seconds.
