Question

Mauryn poured juice into a glass. The graphs show how the volume of juice in the glass changed over time. Match each description with the appropriate graph.

Mauryn was pouring juice into the glass when her cell phone rang. She stopped pouring the juice while she answered the call, then finishing filling the glass.
Mauryn was pouring juice into the glass and then the glass tipped over.

Mauryn poured juice into the glass. She stopped when the glass was a little less than half full. Then she set aside the glass to get some crackers to eat with the juice.

In Graph 1, the horizontal axis is labeled as Time and the vertical axis is labeled as Volume of Juice in the Glass. A line starts from the origin, goes up uniformly to a point then becomes parallel to the horizontal axis.


In Graph 2, the horizontal axis is labeled as Time and the vertical axis is labeled as Volume of Juice in the Glass. A line starts from the origin, goes up uniformly to a point then becomes parallel to the horizontal axis for some time then again goes up.


In Graph 3, the horizontal axis is labeled as Time and the vertical axis is labeled as Volume of Juice in the Glass. A line starts from the origin, goes up uniformly to a point then goes down rapidly with a concave up shape and ends on the horizontal axis.

Answer 1

The first description matches with Graph 2. The second description matches with Graph 3. The third description matches with Graph 1.
