The time period which has the greatest rate of change is from 0 to 5 minutes, because the steeper the line is, the greater the slope is. Hope this helps!

[tex]0-5\ min\\\\\dfrac{3\ km}{5\ min}=0.6\ \dfrac{km}{min}\\\\5-20\ min\\\\\dfrac{(4-3)\ km}{(20-5)\ min}=\dfrac{1\ km}{15\ min}\approx0.067\ \dfrac{km}{h}\\\\20-35\\\\\dfrac{(6-4)\ min}{(35-20)\ min}=\dfrac{2\ km}{15\ min}\approx0.133\ \dfrac{km}{min}\\\\0.067 < 0.133 < 0.6\\\\Therefore\ your\ answer\ is: A)\ 0\ to\ 5\ minutes[/tex]
