What does it mean when a graph shows a rapid increase followed by a peak and a rapid decrease?

Back

This indicates that the quantity being measured experienced a quick rise in value, reached its highest point, and then fell sharply, suggesting a short-lived trend or event.

How can you determine if a line on a graph is decreasing?

Back

A line is decreasing if the y-values are getting smaller as the x-values increase, which can be observed by looking for a downward slope between two points.

What does it mean for a graph to be increasing?

Back

An increasing graph indicates that as the x-values increase, the y-values also increase, showing a positive relationship between the two variables.

What is a constant rate in the context of a graph?

Back

A constant rate means that the quantity being measured changes at a steady pace over time, resulting in a straight line on the graph.

How can you interpret a specific point on a graph?

Back

A specific point on a graph represents the value of the dependent variable at a given value of the independent variable, providing context for the relationship being analyzed.

What does a horizontal line on a graph indicate?

Back

A horizontal line indicates that the value of the dependent variable remains constant regardless of changes in the independent variable.

Front

How can you identify the intervals of increase and decrease on a graph?

Back

By analyzing the slope of the graph: if the slope is positive, the graph is increasing; if the slope is negative, the graph is decreasing.

Front

What does it mean if a graph has a steep slope?

Back

A steep slope indicates a rapid change in the dependent variable with respect to the independent variable, suggesting a strong relationship.

What is the relationship between time and distance in a distance-time graph?

Back

In a distance-time graph, the slope represents speed; a steeper slope indicates higher speed, while a flatter slope indicates lower speed.
