3.2
(a) A lives closer to the school than B ( OP
(b) A starts earlier than B from school. From the graph, A starts from O at time 0 whereas B starts after some finite value t
(c) B walks faster than as the slope for B is steeper than A
(d) Both B and A reaches home at the same time
(e) At the intersection of the two lines, it is evident that B overtakes A once
