Lesson 6: Features of Graphs
Diego is walking home from school at a constant rate.
This graph represents function , which gives his distance from home, in kilometers, minutes since leaving the school. Use the graph to find or estimate:

In a bungee jump, the height of the jumper is a function of time since the jump begins.
Function defines the height, in meters, of a jumper above a river, seconds since leaving the platform. Here is a graph of function , followed by five expressions or equations and five graphical features. | |
Use the graph to estimate and .
Use the graph to estimate the solutions to and .
Based on the information available, how long do you think the bungee cord is? Make an estimate and explain your reasoning.
