Atinga Journey 608458
1. **Stating the problem:**
We need to draw a distance-time graph for Mr. Atinga's journey using the given scale: 2cm represents 30 minutes on the x-axis (time) and 2cm represents 4km on the y-axis (distance).
2. **Understanding the journey:**
- He starts cycling at 13:00 GMT.
- Distance to village K is 22 km.
- Average speed while cycling is 16 km/h.
- He rests for 15 minutes after covering 22 km.
- Then continues and reaches the village after 30 minutes.
- Spends 1 hour with his parents.
- Returns home in 1 hour 30 minutes.
3. **Calculate time taken to cover 22 km:**
Using the formula for time: $$t = \frac{d}{v}$$
$$t = \frac{22}{16} = 1.375 \text{ hours} = 1 \text{ hour } 22.5 \text{ minutes}$$
4. **Rest time:**
15 minutes rest after 22 km.
5. **Time to reach village after rest:**
30 minutes more cycling.
6. **Total time from start to village:**
$$1 \text{ hour } 22.5 \text{ minutes} + 15 \text{ minutes} + 30 \text{ minutes} = 2 \text{ hours } 7.5 \text{ minutes}$$
7. **Time spent with parents:**
1 hour.
8. **Return time:**
1 hour 30 minutes.
9. **Plotting points for the graph:**
- Start at (0,0) at 13:00.
- After 1 hour 22.5 minutes (82.5 minutes), distance is 22 km.
- Rest for 15 minutes: distance remains 22 km.
- After 30 minutes more, distance remains 22 km (arrived at village).
- Stay 1 hour: distance remains 22 km.
- Return trip 1 hour 30 minutes: distance decreases from 22 km to 0 km.
10. **Convert times to cm on x-axis:**
- 30 minutes = 2 cm, so 1 minute = 2/30 = 0.0667 cm.
- Total time from start to village: 127.5 minutes = 127.5 * 0.0667 = 8.5 cm.
- Total time including stay and return: 127.5 + 60 + 90 = 277.5 minutes = 18.5 cm.
11. **Convert distances to cm on y-axis:**
- 4 km = 2 cm, so 1 km = 0.5 cm.
- 22 km = 11 cm.
12. **Summary of key points for graph:**
- (0 cm, 0 cm) at 13:00.
- (5.5 cm, 11 cm) after 82.5 minutes (cycling 22 km).
- (6.5 cm, 11 cm) after 15 minutes rest.
- (8.5 cm, 11 cm) after 30 minutes cycling to village.
- (12.5 cm, 11 cm) after 1 hour stay.
- (18.5 cm, 0 cm) after 1 hour 30 minutes return.
This graph will show distance increasing, then flat during rest and stay, then decreasing on return.
**Final answer:**
Use the above points and scales to draw the distance-time graph for Mr. Atinga's journey.
