Statistics (pictograms, bar charts & line graphs): Leopard and Tiger

Further Challenges

• An hour later, a Siberian tiger sets off across the same territory from the same starting point. It travels at a steady 3 miles per hour without pausing to rest.

Using the same time/distance line graph as the Amur leopard’s, plot the journey of the tiger and use the graph to answer the questions below:

• How far will the tiger have travelled in 8 hours?
• Can you generalise, by using your line graphs, how long it will take for the tiger to catch up with the leopard?
