A. The relationship between time and Ivan's position at 10.2 seconds to 12 seconds is nonlinear.
B. Ivan's position changes from increasing to decreasing at a little over 6 seconds.
D. Ivan's starting position is 2 feet off of the ground.
Interpretations A, B, and D are correct. The graph clearly shows that Ivan's position is changing non-linearly between 10.2 seconds to 12 seconds, his position changes from increasing to decreasing a little over 6 seconds, and his starting position is 2 feet off the ground. Interpretations C and E are not correct as the graph does not show a linear change in Ivan's position over time, and it does not provide any information on the duration or end of the Ferris wheel ride.
Ivan's position on a Ferris wheel is represented by the graph below where x is time in seconds and y is his distance from the ground.
Which interpretations of the graph are true? Choose all that are correct.
A
The relationship between time and Ivan's position at 10.2 seconds to 12 seconds is nonlinear.
B
Ivan's position changes from increasing to decreasing at a little over 6 seconds.
C
The change in Ivan's position is linear from zero to 10.2 seconds.
D
Ivan's starting position is 2 feet off of the ground.
E
The Ferris wheel stops when Ivan is 10 feet from the ground.
