Let's analyze the question.

The graph shows Rita's journey:

1. Section 1: She moves away from home (distance increases).
2. Section 2: She remains stationary at a certain distance (at school).
3. Section 3: The distance starts decreasing as she returns home.

The question asks: Which part of the graph shows her distance from home decreasing?

The correct answer is A. 4, as this segment represents her returning home.

Related Questions:

1. How do graphs like this represent real-world motion scenarios?
2. What does the slope of each section of the graph represent?
3. How could the graph change if she took a different route?
4. What does a flat line in such a graph signify?
5. Can this type of graph represent speed? Why or why not?

Tip:

The steeper the slope in such a graph, the faster the motion (increase or decrease in distance).
