Question 4 of 10 • EAP-Algebra Functions and Data Analysis A CR
The velocity of a particle can be modeled by the function . Which graph accurately shows the velocity of the particle at any time, t?
Answer
A
On a coordinate plane, the x-axis is labeled time and the y-axis is labeled velocity. A cubic root function approaches x = negative 4 in quadrant 3, has a point of inflection at (negative 2.5, negative 2), and then increases into quadrant 2 and approaches x = negative 1.
B
On a coordinate plane, the x-axis is labeled time and the y-axis is labeled velocity. A cubic root function approaches x = 1 in quadrant 1, has a point of inflection at (2.5, negative 2), and then increases into quadrant 1 and approaches x = 4.
C
On a coordinate plane, the x-axis is labeled time and the y-axis is labeled velocity. A cubic root function approaches x = 1 in quadrant 1, has a point of inflection at (2.5, 2), and then decreases into quadrant 4 and approaches x = 5.
D
On a coordinate plane, the x-axis is labeled time and the y-axis is labeled velocity. A cubic root function starts in quadrant 4 and increases into quadrant 1. It has a point of inflection at (8, 2) and then it continue to increase in quadrant 1.
