what is angel’s average speed for the following segments?
segment a =
km/min (no extra zeros

Explanation:

Step1: Identify segment A data

From the graph: Segment A goes from (0 min, 0 km) to (5 min, 0.5 km). So $\Delta t = 5 - 0 = 5$ min, $\Delta d = 0.5 - 0 = 0.5$ km.

Step2: Calculate average speed

Average speed = $\frac{\text{Total Distance}}{\text{Total Time}}$
$\text{Speed} = \frac{0.5}{5}$

Answer:

0.1 km/min
