What does this graph indicate about the general relationship between age and distance fromKilauea? In other words, how does age change with distance from the hot spot?

Describe (in words) how the two lines differ in terms of slope. What does this difference in slopetell you about the motion of the Pacific Plate?

Using the data in Table 1, calculate the velocity of the Pacific Plate in kilometers per million years(km/my) while the portion of the Hawaiian hotspot track between Kilauea and Brooks Bank wasformed. Remember, velocity is distance divided by time (in this case, age expressed in millions ofyears). First, determine the distance between Kilauea and Brooks Bank. Then divide by thedifference in age between Kilauea and Brooks Bank.
