Problem
One sunny day, Ling decided to take a hike in the mountains. She left her house at 
, drove at a constant speed of 
miles per hour, and arrived at the hiking trail at 
. After hiking for 
hours, Ling drove home at a constant speed of 
miles per hour. Which of the following graphs best illustrates the distance between Ling’s car and her house over the course of her trip?
