Question
a slanted straight line sloping up on a distance - time graph represents_____ slowing down speeding up not moving moving at a constant speed
In a distance - time graph, the slope of the line represents speed. A slanted straight line has a constant slope. Since the slope is constant, the speed is constant. If it were slowing down, the slope (which is \(\frac{\Delta d}{\Delta t}\), where \(d\) is distance and \(t\) is time) would be decreasing. If speeding up, the slope would be increasing. A horizontal line (\(slope = 0\)) means not moving.
