Solution

The correct option is A
Speed

The slope is given as $\frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}$ . Change in y coordinate is the distance and change in x coordinate is the time in distance-time graph.

We know, $\frac{D i s t a n c e}{T i m e}$ is speed. So the slope of the distance-time graph gives us speed.
