Here is Sam's travel graph.

TimeDistance from home (km)
10 000
10 4530
11 3030
12 300

A travel graph showing distance from home (km) on the y-axis (0 to 40) against time on the x-axis (10 00 to 12 30). The graph consists of three straight line segments: from (10 00, 0) to (10 45, 30), from (10 45, 30) to (11 30, 30), and from (11 30, 30) to (12 30, 0). The y-axis has major grid lines every 10 units. The x-axis has major grid lines every 15 minutes.
