Match each graph with its related table. Explain your answers.

To determine

Find the best option which matches with the distance (miles) verses time (hours) graph as shown below.

  

Answer to Problem 6P

The graph matches with table (A), so option (A) is correct.

Explanation of Solution

Given information: The given graph is shown as,

  

Calculation: From the given option (A), (B) and (C) at time $\left(t=4\right)$ the distance in miles travel is very close to 250 miles and it is greater than 200 miles in option (A) only whereas in option (B) and (C) distance at time $\left(t=4\right)$ is 140 miles and 200 miles. So the option (A) is correct.
