The graph shows the speed of a vehicle. Find the speed in kilometers per minute.

### Vehicle Speed

#### Graph Description
This graph illustrates the relationship between time and distance traveled, representing vehicle speed. The x-axis (horizontal axis) denotes time in minutes, and the y-axis (vertical axis) represents distance in kilometers.

#### Explanation of Axes
- The x-axis (Time) is labeled from 0 to 2 minutes, with increments of 1/2 minute.
- The y-axis (Distance) is labeled from 0 to 2 kilometers, with 1/2 kilometer increments.

#### Data Points
Two specific data points are highlighted and labeled on the graph:
1. **(1, 1/4)**: This point indicates that after 1 minute, the vehicle has traveled 1/4 kilometer.
2. **(2, 1/2)**: This point indicates that after 2 minutes, the vehicle has traveled 1/2 kilometer.

#### Line Description
A straight line connects these points, illustrating a consistent speed over the given time interval. The slope of the line indicates the vehicle's speed.

The graph provides a visual representation of the relationship between time and distance for vehicle speed, indicating that the vehicle travels at a uniform rate.
