It is the first graph the one that represents the actions of the person as distance from the front door as a function of time.

The going up is when the person walks down the street. the horizontal line is when the person stops to talk to a neighbor. the steep slope down is when the person joggs at constant rate shortening the distance from home. The second slope down but not as steep is when the person walks home.

Therefore please, select the first graph labeled "A".
