Exercises: Describe Qualitatively the Functional Relationship Between Two Quantities by Analyzing a Graph

Work through each section in order. For these problems, you describe and sketch graphs using words like increasing, decreasing, constant, linear, and nonlinear. You do not need exact numbers — focus on direction, shape, and relative steepness.

$A three-segment line on a Time vs People graph: rising, then flat, then falling.$

The graph shows the number of people in a store over one day. How many separate behaviors (increasing, decreasing, or constant sections) does it have?

Three: it increases, then stays constant, then decreases.

Two: it goes up and then comes down.

One: the whole graph is a single function.
