Qualitative Graph Interpretation

The video tutorial explains how to sketch qualitative graphs, focusing on the shape rather than numerical values. It uses a scenario where Hal rides his bike, stops to rest, and continues at a slower pace. The tutorial guides viewers through sketching the graph in three intervals: fast pace, rest, and slower pace, emphasizing the importance of understanding the graph's shape and steepness.

What is a qualitative graph primarily used for?

• Comparing numerical values

• Calculating precise values

• Showing the shape and trend of data

• Displaying exact numerical data

In the scenario, what is labeled on the x-axis of the graph?

• Speed

• Pace

• Time

• Distance

How long does Hal ride his bike at a fast pace?

• 20 minutes

• 50 minutes

• 30 minutes

• 40 minutes

What does a steep line on a qualitative graph indicate?

• A slow pace

• A decreasing pace

• A fast pace

• A constant pace

During Hal's rest, what does the graph look like?

• Downward slope

• Curved line

• Flat line

• Steep line

How long does Hal rest during his bike ride?

• 40 minutes

• 30 minutes

• 20 minutes

• 10 minutes

What does a flat line on a qualitative graph represent?

• Variable distance

• Constant distance

• Decreasing distance

• Increasing distance

How does the graph change when Hal rides at a slower pace?

• The line remains constant

• The line decreases

• The line becomes flatter

• The line becomes steeper

How long does Hal ride at a slower pace?

• 10 minutes

• 20 minutes

• 40 minutes

• 30 minutes

What is the key to sketching qualitative graphs?

• Using a ruler for precision

• Focusing on exact numbers

• Paying attention to the shape and steepness

• Ignoring the pace
