Question
movement of a car on a track
5 things you notice in this image. complete the sentence below.
- i notice... that the graph is a linear graph
- i notice... 7 plots are plotted
- i notice... the graph 7 by 7
- i notice...
- i notice...
1 thing you wonder about in this image.
- i wonder...
For the "I notice..." part (4th): The x - axis represents time in seconds (ranging from 0 to 7) and the y - axis represents distance in meters (ranging from 0 to around 7). So we can notice that the x - axis is labeled "Time (s)" and the y - axis is labeled "Distance (m)".
For the "I notice..." part (5th): Since it's a linear graph, the slope (which represents speed) should be constant. We can calculate the slope between two points, say (1,1) and (2,2), the slope $m=\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}=\frac{2 - 1}{2 - 1}=1$. So we can notice that the speed of the car (slope) is 1 m/s.
For the "I wonder..." part: We can wonder about what would happen to the graph if the car's speed changed, for example, if the car started to accelerate or decelerate, how would the graph look different?

- I notice... that the x - axis is labeled "Time (s)" and the y - axis is labeled "Distance (m)".
- I notice... that the speed of the car is 1 m/s (since slope = 1).
- I wonder... what the graph would look like if the car's speed changed.
