\(gradient = \frac{change~in~y}{change~in~x} = \frac{change~in~distance}{change~in~time} = \frac{change~in~metres}{change~in~seconds} = m/s.\) The gradient of a distance-time graph represents speed.

gradient = \(\frac{change~in~y}{change~in~x}\) = \( \frac{change~in~distance}{change~in~time} \) = \(\frac{change~in~metres}{change~in~seconds} \) = m/s. The gradient ...
