Question

this distance - time graph shows a hikers journey. drag each description to match the correct section of the graph. answer choices: hiking away from base camp at a fast pace, returning toward base camp quickly, hiking away from base camp at a slow pace, returning toward base camp slowly, taking a rest break at the same location. hours 0 - 2, hours 2 - 3, hours 3 - 5, hours 5 - 7, hours 7 - 8

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the graph

The graph shows the hiker's distance from base camp over time.

Step2: Match each time interval

• Hours 0 - 2: The hiker is returning toward base camp quickly (as the distance from base camp is decreasing rapidly).
• Hours 2 - 3: The hiker is taking a rest break at the same location (distance from base camp remains constant).
• Hours 3 - 5: The hiker is hiking away from base camp at a slow pace (distance from base camp is increasing but not as steep as the last interval).
• Hours 5 - 7: The hiker is hiking away from base camp at a fast pace (distance from base camp is increasing steeply).
• Hours 7 - 8: The hiker is returning toward base camp slowly (distance from base camp is decreasing but not as rapidly as the first return).

Answer:

• Hours 0 - 2: Returning toward base camp quickly
• Hours 2 - 3: Taking a rest break at the same location
• Hours 3 - 5: Hiking away from base camp at a slow pace
• Hours 5 - 7: Hiking away from base camp at a fast pace
• Hours 7 - 8: Returning toward base camp slowly
