The graph shows Sam's drive to the movie theater. Which segment shows Sam from the time he leaves his house until he reaches a red light? A graph is shown with the title Sam's drive. The x-axis is labeled Tme driving, and the y-axis is labeled Distance driven. Segment A begins at the origin and continues quickly upward until x equals 0.3. Segment B is a horizontal line from 0.3 to 0.5. Segment C moves in an upward direction until x equals 1.25 and Segment D moves quickly upward until x equals 1.75

Segment A shows that he left his house and was driving. Segment B is when he is stopped at the red light because time is passing but he isn't moving. Segment A is your answer.

Answer:

Segment A

Step-by-step explanation:

From the time Sam left the house, he traveled at a constant rate of speed until he came to the red light. He then stopped at the red light for a time, then continued driving at a constant speed. He then increased his speed and continued driving.

The origin, (0, 0), would be the starting point; in this problem, it is Sam's house. He drives from his house to the red light. We know this is segment A because right after this segment, when he is at the red light, the graph shows he stops (horizontal line).
