Journey graphs
1 Here is some information about Mina’s journey to the market. Use the
information to draw up a table showing how far she had walked at different points
in the journey. Then draw a distance/time graph.
Mina left home, walking slowly. After 10 minutes, she had walked 1000 m.
Then she met a friend. They stood and talked for 4 minutes.
Mina realised she might be late. She ran the next 2000 m to the market and
arrived there 30 minutes after leaving home.
2 Draw a distance/time graph for a journey similar to Mina’s. It might be a journey
on a bus or plane. Swap your graph with a partner.
From your partner’s graph, draw a table of distances and times for the journey.
Then write a description of the journey, in words.
