Question

the graph is the path beth took on a walk. what does the line from time 6 to 10 indicate? beth slowed down considerably. beth turned around and went the other direction. beth sped up considerably. beth went farther away from the origin.

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze position-time graph

The graph plots position (m) vs. time (sec). From time 6 to 10, the line slopes downward, meaning position decreases.

Step2: Relate to movement direction

A decrease in position (assuming origin is starting point) indicates moving back toward the origin, i.e., turning around.

Step3: Evaluate options

Downward slope ≠ speed change (slope steepness = speed, which is constant here) or moving farther away. It matches turning around.

Answer:

Beth turned around and went the other direction.
