This video follows a sprinter graphing her distance and speed for two separate sprints. The first sprint is at a constant speed, resulting in a straight line graph. In the second sprint, her graph reflects three distinct intervals as her speed differs over the course. Follow along as she determines gradients and midpoints and her average speeds for both sprints as well as her speeds at different intervals. This is an excellent resource for applying mathematical concepts to real-world situations.
