Answer:

The diagrammatic representation of speed of each person's trip can be given by a column graph per second where the height of the column represents the total distance covered and the position of the column represents the time

The difference in speed is seen in the difference in the height of the column per unit time with the higher column representing the higher speed

The above graph can be combined with the distance time graph where the slope of the line graph is the speed with which the person is riding the bike.

The difference in speed is seen in the difference in slope with the steeper slope representing the higher speed

Callie biked 12 miles in 3 hours. Carter biked 10 miles in 2 hours. Represent each-example-1
