Answer:

5 times.

Explanation:

First, look at the values of each line at the 1-hour mark.

For line A (the bicyclist), the distance is about 25 km.

For line B (the pedestrian), the distance is about 5 km.

To determine how many times greater the bicyclist distance is than the pedestrian, divide the values:


\frac{25\text{km}}{5\text{km}}=5

Therefore, the distance covered by the bicyclist for 1 hour is 5 times greater than the distance covered by the pedestrian for the same amount of time.
