Distance time graph shows that how the distance of the object changes with time. The average speed of Sadie is 8 miles per hour.
To solve this problem, we need to know about the distance-time graph.
What is distance-time graph?
Distance time graph shows that how the distance of the object changes with time.
Given information-
The graph given which shows the distance of Sadie from home over time as she goes for the afternoon walk.
The table attached below shows the distance of Sadie in each 15 minutes.
The total distance covered by the Sadie is,
[tex]=2+2+4\\=8[/tex]
Thus the distance covered by the Sadie is 8 miles.
The total time taken by Sadie to cover 8 miles distance is 60 minutes or 1 hour.
As it is not clear that what has to be find out in the given problem. Let assume that the average speed of Sadie has to be find out.
Thus the average speed is the ratio of total distance traveled to the total time taken. Thus,
[tex]v=\dfrac{8}{1} \\v=8[/tex]
Thus the average speed of Sadie is 8 miles per hour.
