Without a specific graph, it's general that a steeper slope denotes a faster speed and locations where graphs intersect depict equal displacement at that time. Overall speed is deduced by comparing total displacements and times for each walker. Since the specific graphical information is missing from the provided scenario, I will give you a general explanation on how to interpret such a graph. When comparing the displacement of over place for two walkers, look at the slopes of the lines representing each walker. A steeper slope indicates a faster speed, while a horizontal line indicates rest If the lines cross at a specific time, it means the walkers have the same displacement at that time. The overall speed can be determined by the total displacement divided by total time for each walker.
