of the total trip in seconds.
answer
time

question
The chart shows the time, initial velocity, and final velocity of three riders.
Which best describes the riders?
answer
Gabriella is slowing down at the same rate that Kendall is speeding up, and Franklin is not accelerating.
question
Which equation is most likely used to determine the acceleration from a velocity vs. time graph?
answer
m = y2-y1 / x2-x1
question
