Question
Use the image to answer the question.
A step-up line is plotted in a coordinate plane. Each section of the line is labeled from 1 to 4. The x-axis for time in minutes ranges from 0 to 11 in increments of 1 and the y-axis for blocks from home ranges from 0 to 18 in increments of 1.
What scenario can be represented by the line labeled 2 in the graph?

Based on the description of the step-up line and labeling, the scenario represented by the line labeled 2 is most likely "walking back toward home at a constant speed."
In a step-up line, each horizontal segment usually indicates a period of time when the object is stationary (not moving), while each vertical section reflects movement. If line labeled 2 shows a steady increase without any flat sections, it indicates a constant rate of movement—characteristic of walking back toward home at a constant speed.
The other options (falling, stopping for an animal, and speeding up) would typically involve acceleration or changes in speed, which would not be represented by a steady linear increase in the context provided.
