Mario rides his motorcycle in going to school. He drives at an average speed of 30 kilometers per hour. The distance between his house and the school is 15 kilometers. Every time he sees his best friend Jessica walking on the road, he invites her for a ride and lowers his speed. On the other hand, he increases his speed when he wakes up late for school. a) If x represents the time it takes Mario to drive to school with the given distance of 15 kilometers, how will you represent the relationship of his speed (y) versus the time (x)?

A car moves along a straight road. It moves at a speed of 50 km/hr for 4 minutes, then during the next 4 minutes it gradually speeds up to 100 km/hr, continues at this speed for 4 minutes, then takes 4 minutes to gradually slow to a complete stop. Make a sketch like the figures in Section 1.2 of your textbook, marking dots for the position along the road every minute.
