The graph shows distances traveled by two boats.
a third boat travels 32 km in 4 hours.
how does the third boat compare to boat 1 and boat 2?
a.
the third boat is slower than both boat 1 and boat 2.
b.
the third boat is faster than both boat 1 and boat 2.
c.
the third boat is faster than boat 1 but slower than boat 2.
d.
the third boat is faster than boat 2 but slower than boat 1

To find the speed of the boats we will divide the distance by time.

From the graph we finde the boats' speeds as ;



And for the speed of the third boat, we will also divide the distance by time.



As you can see the speed of boat 3 (8 km/h) is more than boat 1 (7 km/h) and boat 2 (5 km/h).

Thus the third boat is faster than both of them.

The answer is B.

You can see the speed of boat 1 and 2 in the picture.

Most of the people don’t make the sense of taking it
