To find this, you have to cut the figure into familiar shapes. In this case, you can cut it into two rectangles. When you cut it, there is a missing measurement, which is the length for the small rectangle. To find that, you subtract the other two lengths given, which is 8 and 6, and thats the length for the small rectangle. Then you do l•w for both shapes.
We want to find a graph that represents Noah's average speed.
We define the average speed as the quotient between the distance moved and the time it takes to move that distance, then in this case we will have:
s = 12ft/6s = 2ft/s
Then we can define a linear equation:
y = (2ft/s)*x
As the distance that Noah travels in x seconds.
The graph of the given linear function can be seen below, and that is the graph with the slope that best represents Noah's average speed.
