Question

The graph shows Kelly traveling from home to her grandmother's house: A graph is shown with the title Kelly's drive. The x-axis is labeled Time driving, and the y-axis is labeled Distance driven. Segment A begins at the origin and continues quickly upward until x equals 0.5. Segment B is a horizontal line from x equals 0.5 until 1.75. Segment C moves in an upward direction until x equals 3. Segment D moves in an upward direction until x equals 3.5 Which interval on the graph indicates she is stuck in a traffic jam? A B C D

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

Answer 2

The correct option is: B

Explanation:

The x-axis is labeled Time driving, and the y-axis is labeled Distance driven.

Segment B is a horizontal line from x equals 0.5 until 1.75.

So, the value of
`y` is constant in the interval
`x=0.5` to
`x=1.75` is 0.

Thus, the distance traveled in the time interval 0.5 to 1.75 will be 0, which means the car was in the same position in that time interval.

So, the interval B on the graph indicates she is stuck in a traffic jam.
