Analyzing Graphs/Writing Stories (8.F.5)

Front

What does it mean when sales decrease quickly at a constant rate?

Back

It means that the sales are dropping steadily over time without any fluctuations, indicating a consistent decline.

Front

What happens to an object when it is slowing down quickly to a stop?

Back

The object's speed decreases rapidly until it comes to a complete stop, indicating a strong negative acceleration.

Front

What does the section of a graph labeled 'F' represent?

Back

It represents a period where the value stays the same over time, indicating no change.

Front

What does a graph showing constant speed look like?

Back

It is a straight line that slants upwards or downwards, indicating that distance is changing at a steady rate over time.

Front

What does it mean when a graph shows a section that slowly decreases at a constant rate?

Back

It indicates that the value is gradually declining over time without any sudden drops or increases.

Front

What is the significance of point B to C in a graph?

Back

It shows the behavior of the object during that interval, such as slowing down or stopping.

Front

How can you identify a section of a graph where the object is not moving?

Back

It is represented by a horizontal line, indicating that the distance remains constant over time.

Front

What does acceleration mean in the context of a distance-time graph?

Back

It refers to the change in speed of the object, which can be shown by a curve in the graph.

Front

What does a steep slope on a distance-time graph indicate?

Back

It indicates a high speed, meaning the object is covering a large distance in a short amount of time.

Front

What does a flat line on a distance-time graph represent?

Back

It represents a period of time where the object is stationary, with no change in distance.
