The graph shows the distance Ted traveled from the market in miles (y) as a function of time in seconds (x). The graph is divided into four segments labeled P, Q. R. and S
S
Distance
(mi)
R
P
Time (sec)
Which segment shows Ted waiting for a cab?

A) P
B) Q
C) R
D) S

Explanation:

The flat horizontal portion S is where the distance (y) does not increase or decrease. So Ted is stationary during this time frame.

In terms of speed, we would say speed = distance/time = (change in y)/(change in x). Note how this is the slope.

Rise = 0 because the horizontal line does not go up or down. The run is any positive number, though convention usually has Run = 1. Therefore, slope = rise/run = 0/1 = 0. All flat horizontal lines have a slope of 0 to indicate no upward or downward movement.

x = -2

y = 848
