Which would most likely be graphed using a continuous graph? Check all that apply.

- total cost, c, of buying b cans of beans

- total cost, c, of buying g pounds of broccoli

- speed of a car, s, as it accelerates over time, t

- number of stamps, s, needed to mail p postcards

- total distance, d, that has been driven over time, t

- decrease in outside temperature, F, one evening over time, t

Respuesta :

The correct options are:

  • total cost, c, of buying g pounds of broccoli.
  • speed of a car, s, as it accelerates over time, t.
  • total distance, d, that has been driven over time, t
  • decrease in outside temperature, F, one evening over time, t.

----------------------------------------

This question is solved classifying the input variables as discrete or continuous.

  • Discrete variable: Also know as countable, cannot be represented by decimal numbers.
  • Continuous variable: Can be represented by decimal numbers.

If the input variable is continuous, a continuous graph is used.

----------------------------------------

- total cost, c, of buying b cans of beans

Cans of beans is the input, and the number of cans is a countable number, that is, 0, 1, 2, ..., so a discrete graph is used, and the option is not checked.

----------------------------------------

- total cost, c, of buying g pounds of broccoli

Pounds can assume decimal values, so it is a continuous variable, and a continuous graph is used, and this option is checked.

------------------------------------

- speed of a car, s, as it accelerates over time, t

- total distance, d, that has been driven over time, t

- decrease in outside temperature, F, one evening over time, t

Time can assume decimal values, like 0.5 seconds, 0.5 hours, so it is a continuous variable, and a continuous graph is used, and these options is checked.

------------------------------------

- number of stamps, s, needed to mail p postcards

The number of postcards is the input, and the number of postcards is a countable number, that is, 0, 1, 2, ..., so a discrete graph is used, and the option is not checked.
