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.

Recall / Warm-Up

$A line on a Time vs Height graph that rises steadily from lower left to upper right.$

On the graph below, what is the function doing as you read it from left to right?

Decreasing — the output gets smaller as the input gets larger.

Constant — the output stays the same as the input gets larger.

Increasing — the output gets larger as the input gets larger.
