Peter walks 3 minutes at a constant rate and travels 330 meters. If we graph this relationship with time along the x-axis and di

butalik [34]

The graph of the journey is shown in the speed-time graph below

At the time = 3 minutes, Peter would have achieved the speed V.

The distance he travelled is the area under the line as shown in the graph

We first need to find the V by using the area of a rectangle formula

$Area= \frac{(b)(h)}{2}$
$330= \frac{3h}{2}$
$660=3h$
$h=660/3=220$

so V=220
the gradient the f slope then given as $\frac{220}{3}$
