Wile E. Coyote left school at a slow but steady pace, heading for his cave. When he was one-third of the way to the cave, he realized that he had forgotten his math book, so he ran back to school to get it. While he was at school, he played for a while with some other coyotes. He then realized that he would be late for supper, so he started jogging at a steady rate toward the cave. About halfway to the cave, he thought that he was still going to be late, so he ran faster and got to the cave in time for supper.
Draw two qualitative graphs for the story. One should show Wile E.'s distance from the cave versus time since he left school. The second graph should show Wile E.'s total distance traveled versus time since he left school. The two graphs should be coordinated so that corresponding times line up.
