module 5 test a graph showing the distance a person has walked over time is an example of a discontinuous graph continuous
In the context of graphs, a continuous graph is used when the data can take any value within a range (like distance over time, as time and distance can have infinitely many values in between measured points). A discrete graph is for data with distinct, separate values (like number of people, which is whole numbers). Since distance walked over time can be measured continuously (e.g., at any fraction of a second, there's a corresponding distance), this is a continuous graph.

continuous (the correct option is the one labeled with "continuous", as the graph of distance over time is continuous because both time and distance are continuous variables that can take any value within their domains, unlike discrete variables which have distinct, separate values.)
