- Segment A (0 to 1 hour): The person is biking away from home, covering 3 miles in 1 hour. Speed = 3 miles/hour.
- Segment B (1 to 3 hours): The person is stationary, staying 3 miles from home for 2 hours. Speed = 0 miles/hour.
- Segment C (3 to 5 hours): The person continues biking away from home, traveling from 3 to 8.5 miles in 2 hours. Speed = 2.75 miles/hour.
- Segment D (5 to 7 hours): The person is stationary again, staying 8.5 miles from home for 2 hours. Speed = 0 miles/hour.
- Segment E (7 to 8.5 hours): The person starts biking back toward home, traveling from 8.5 to 2 miles in 1.5 hours. Speed = 4.33 miles/hour (toward home).
- Segment F (8.5 to 9.5 hours): The person is stationary, staying 2 miles from home for 1 hour. Speed = 0 miles/hour.
- Segment G (9.5 to 10 hours): The person bikes the remaining 2 miles home in 0.5 hours. Speed = 4 miles/hour (toward home).
