Qualitative Graphs 1

Front

What is a qualitative graph?

Back

A qualitative graph represents the relationship between two variables without using numerical values, focusing on the overall trend or behavior of the data.

Front

What does a flat line on a qualitative graph indicate?

Back

A flat line indicates that there is no change in the variable being measured, meaning the subject is at a constant state.

Front

In a distance-time graph, what does a steep slope represent?

Back

A steep slope indicates a high speed, meaning the subject is moving quickly.

Front

What does a downward slope in a distance-time graph signify?

Back

A downward slope signifies that the subject is moving back towards the starting point or decreasing distance.

Front

What does an upward slope in a distance-time graph indicate?

Back

An upward slope indicates that the subject is moving away from the starting point or increasing distance.

Front

What does a section of a graph where the line is horizontal represent?

Back

It represents a period of time where the subject is stationary or not moving.

Front

What can be inferred if a graph shows a series of steep and flat lines?

Back

It indicates varying speeds, with steep lines showing fast movement and flat lines showing periods of rest or constant speed.

Front

What does a sudden drop in a qualitative graph indicate?

Back

A sudden drop indicates a rapid decrease in the variable being measured, such as a quick stop or change in direction.

Front

How can you tell if someone is walking faster on a distance-time graph?

Back

If the slope of the line is steeper compared to other sections, it indicates that the person is walking faster.

Front

What does a gradual increase in a qualitative graph suggest?

Back

A gradual increase suggests a slow and steady change in the variable being measured, such as a slow acceleration.
