Loading Graph...
A Cartesian graph titled Distance From Home is displayed with the horizontal axis labeled Time (am) and the vertical axis labeled Distance (km). A piecewise linear graph is plotted in the Cartesian graph. The first point is located at coord(5, 5). Second point at coord(6, 15). Third point at coord(7, 30). Fourth point at coord(8, 30). Fifth point at coord(9, 40). And the last point at coord(10, 50). The coordinates are not explicitly shown on the graph.

Outcomes

12C.A.2.3

Recognize that graphs and tables of values communicate information about rate of change, and use a given graph or table of values for a relation to identify the units used to measure rate of change

12C.A.2.4

Identify when the rate of change is zero, constant, or changing, given a table of values or a graph of a relation, and compare two graphs by describing rate of change
