On the way to her babysitting job, Mary rode her bike for the first mile. She stopped at a traffic light and waited a few minutes for the traffic light to turn green. She then walked her bike across the street and up a short steep hill. Finally, she rode the bike at a constant speed for one more mile. If Mary created a graph of her time and distance, which statement describes the part of her graph that would show no change in distance?

Since Mary drew distance vs time graph, let's check all legs of her journey and see in which one the time passes but distance is static.

  • Leg 1: Rode bike for first mile: Definitely distance changes with time.
  • Leg 2: Stopped at traffic light: Here, time passes but she doesn't move and thus distance covered is same for that time.
  • Leg 3: Walked bike across street: Here she covered short distance with respect to time.
  • Leg 4: Rode bike one more mile at constant speed: Definitely here distance changes with time.

As can be seen from the 4 legs discussed above, Leg #2 is when Mary's distance doesn't change.
