Question

1. Pusheen ran out of her front door, then slipped and fell. She got up and walked the rest of the way to the catnip patch down the block.

2. Terrence cycled rapidly down the hill that starts at his house. He then slowed down as he climbed up the other side towards the candy store.

Answer 1

The first image is for question 1, the second image is for question 2.

Explanation:

Alright, let's say for #1 each little tic I drew on the x-axis and y-axis of the graph are intervals. Let's say for time, each tic is an interval of five seconds, and for distance from home, each tic is an interval of a few feet - maybe 3-5.

For #1, Pusheen runs a few feet from her house (running out of her front door signifies that) in around 10 seconds. Then, she falls. Let's assume it takes her another 10 or so seconds to get up. During that time, she doesn't move from the spot where she fell, but time continues, so x increases while y doesn't. Afterwards, she gets up and walks down the block. As she's walking, let's estimate that she goes about 10 feet within 20 seconds.

Boom. Question 1 is done.

Now, let's say for #2 each little tic I drew on the axes of the graph are intervals. Let's say for time, each tic is, once again, an interval of five seconds, and for distance from home, each tic is now an interval of 10 feet.

For #2, Terrence cycles down a hill from his house. (Basically, he rides a bicycle down from his house on the hill.) He's rapidly cycling, zooming down the hill pretty quickly. Let's say he moves a decent 30 feet in around 20 or so seconds. Not too bad. Afterwards, he slows down as he begins to climb the other side, presumably the other side of the hill, to reach the candy shop. Now, he's moving slower and climbing. Suddenly, he's only moving a few feet for every 5 seconds that passes.

Boom. Question 2 is done.

Answer 2

I dont know if you want me to draw it but try drawing the first line for pusheen a little bit up but more to the right because she only went out the door. Next for her you want to make the line go straight to the right for a bit to say she tripped. Then have the line slowly rise because she is walking away from home not running anymore. Then stall it for the rest of the way.

Now lets start for terrence draw his line going up rapidly. Then start to lower the line bit by bit to show he slowed down going up the hill. For his it never stops so never make the line straight to the right for him.

This should be all hope this helps.
