### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Position-Time Graph**: - A position-time graph plots the position of an object against time. The x-axis represents time (t), while the y-axis represents position (x). 2. **Defining Slope**: - The slope of a graph is defined as the change in the y-axis variable divided by the change in the x-axis variable. In the case of a position-time graph, the slope is given by the formula: \[ ...
