A pattern of rectangles is formed by decreasing the length and increasing the width, each by the same amount. The relationship between x, the amount of increase, and A, the area of the rectangle represented by the increase, is quadratic.Which graph could represent the area of each rectangle in terms of the change in the length and width?

A graph shows change in dimensions (units) labeled 1 to 10 on the horizontal axis and area (square units) on the vertical axis. A straight line decreases from 0 to 9 units.
Option A
B
A graph shows change in dimensions (units) labeled 1 to 10 on the horizontal axis and area (square units) on the vertical axis. A line decreases from 0 to 3 units, increases from 3 to 6 seconds, and decreases from 6 to 9 seconds.
Option B
C
A graph shows change in dimensions (units) labeled 1 to 10 on the horizontal axis and area (square units) on the vertical axis. A line increases from 0 to 3 seconds then decreases from 3 to 9 seconds.
Option C
D
A graph shows change in dimensions (units) labeled 1 to 10 on the horizontal axis and area (square units) on the vertical axis. A curved line decreases from 0 to 9 units.
Option D

The speed of a falling object increases at a constant rate as time increases since the object was dropped. Which graph could represent the relationship between t, time in seconds, and s, speed in meters per second?

Question illustration
A
A graph shows dropping time (seconds) labeled 1 to 10 on the horizontal axis and object speed (meters per second) on the vertical axis. A line increases from 0 to 10 seconds.
Option A
B
A graph shows dropping time (seconds) labeled 1 to 10 on the horizontal axis and object speed (meters per second) on the vertical axis. A line decreases from 0 to 4 seconds.
Option B
C
A graph shows dropping time (seconds) labeled 1 to 10 on the horizontal axis and object speed (meters per second) on the vertical axis. A line increases from 0 to 4.5 seconds.
Option C
D
A graph shows dropping time (seconds) labeled 1 to 10 on the horizontal axis and object speed (meters per second) on the vertical axis. A line decreases from 1 to 9 seconds.
Option D

Julia finds that the data in the table can be modeled by the function y = 5(4)x.

Question illustration
A
Julia is correct because the distance starts at 5 feet and increases by a factor of 4.
B
Julia is correct because the function is true for (0, 5) and (1, 20).
C
Julia is not correct because the function is not true for the point (2, 80).
D
Julia is not correct because the distance does not increase by a constant factor each minute.

The graph shows the daily revenue earned selling coupon cards in a fundraiser if the price is decreased by x dollars.

Question illustration
A
R(x) = –x2 + 6x + 40
B
R(x) = –(x – 4)(x + 10)
C
R(x) = –(x2 – 14x + 40)
D
R(x) = –(x + 3)2 + 49
