For a given velocity vs time graph, the distance can be found by calculating the area under it.

In this case, divide the graph into two sections. Calculate the area of each section and add them together to get the total distance travelled.

Area of shape 1 #=1/2*b*h = 1/2 * 4.5 *5=11.25#

Area of shape 2 #=b*h = 4.5*5= 22.5#

Total distance travelled #=11.25+22.5=33.75m#
