Answer:

From highest speed to lowest speed:

A, C, B

Step-by-step explanation:

On a position time graph, the slope of a line would represent the velocity, since the rate of change represents how many meters traveled in the given time.

The larger the slope, the faster the velocity; the steeper the line, the faster the speed.

Since line B is negative, you know that velocity is negative so it automatically has the lowest speed.

Out of lines A and C, since A is steeper, you know that A has a faster speed.

In conclusion:

A is the fastest

C is the middle

B is the slowest
