The following table shows the position of Renu, while she is going to her school. Draw a distance-time graph for her motion.
Time Distance from her home $(km)$
$06:45 \, am$ $0$
$07:00 \, am$ $8$
$01:30 \, pm$ $8$
$01:45 \, pm$ $0$

(N/A) To draw the distance-time graph, follow these steps:
$1$. Take the $x$-axis to represent time and the $y$-axis to represent distance in $km$.
$2$. Plot the given points: $(06:45, 0)$, $(07:00, 8)$, $(01:30, 8)$, and $(01:45, 0)$.
$3$. Join the points to obtain the graph. The graph shows that Renu travels $8 \, km$ to reach school, stays there for some time, and then returns home.
The distance-time graph is as shown in the provided image.
