Use the graph of distance versus time to complete the sentences.

Answers:
The cars on the higher track travel the cars on the lower track, in the same time.:farther than
This means that the cars on the higher track have a average speed than those on the lower track.:greater
This is demonstrated by the of the higher track line being greater than the slope of the lower track line.:slope
