To match each type of graph to the motion it represents, we can think about the characteristics of speed and acceleration in each scenario:

  1. A boat with decreasing speed: This would be represented by a graph that shows a downward slope over time (deceleration).

    • Match with Graph A (assuming it shows a downward trend)

  2. A boat that is moving at constant speed: This would be represented by a horizontal line on a distance vs. time graph, indicating no change in speed.

    • Match with Graph B (assuming it is a straight horizontal line)

  3. A boat that is not moving: This would be indicated by a horizontal line at zero on a distance vs. time graph.

    • Match with Graph C (assuming it is a flat line at the zero mark)

  4. A boat gaining acceleration: This would be represented by a graph that shows an upward curve, indicating that the speed is increasing over time.

    • Match with Graph D (assuming it shows an upward slope or curve)

Please adjust the match if the graphs have different characteristics than described.
