Module 5 Lesson 6 - Story Graphs

Front

What is a story graph?

Back

A story graph visually represents the changes in a situation over time, showing how different factors affect the story's progression.

Front

What does a steep slope on a graph indicate?

Back

A steep slope indicates a rapid change in the variable being measured, such as speed or sales.

Front

What does a flat line on a graph represent?

Back

A flat line indicates that there is no change in the variable over time, meaning the object is stationary.

Front

How can you determine the speed of an object from a graph?

Back

Speed can be determined by the slope of the line on the graph; a steeper slope indicates a higher speed.

Front

What does it mean when a graph shows a peak?

Back

A peak on a graph indicates the highest point reached by the variable, often representing maximum sales or speed.

Front

What is the significance of the x-axis in a story graph?

Back

The x-axis typically represents time, showing how the situation changes over a specific duration.

Front

What is the significance of the y-axis in a story graph?

Back

The y-axis usually represents the variable being measured, such as distance, speed, or sales.

Front

How can you tell if an object is accelerating from a graph?

Back

If the slope of the graph is increasing, it indicates that the object is accelerating.

Front

What does it mean if a graph shows a downward trend?

Back

A downward trend indicates that the variable is decreasing over time, such as declining sales or speed.

Front

What is a constant rate on a graph?

Back

A constant rate is represented by a straight line with a consistent slope, indicating steady change over time.
