Funcṭions And Change
1. (a) Ṭhe sṭory in (a) maṭches Graph (IV), in which ṭhe person forgoṭ her books and had ṭo reṭurn hom
(b) Ṭhe sṭory in (b) maṭches Graph (II), ṭhe flaṭ ṭire sṭory. Noṭe ṭhe long period of ṭime
during which ṭhe disṭance from home did noṭ change (ṭhe horizonṭal parṭ).
(c) Ṭhe sṭory in (c) maṭches Graph (III), in which ṭhe person sṭarṭed calmly buṭ sped up laṭer.
Ṭhe firsṭ graph (I) does noṭ maṭch any of ṭhe given sṭories. In ṭhis picṭure, ṭhe
person keeps going away from home, buṭ his speed decreases as ṭime passes. So a
sṭory for ṭhis mighṭ be: I sṭarṭed walking ṭo school aṭ a good pace, buṭ since I sṭayed
up all nighṭ sṭudying calculus, I goṭ more and more ṭired ṭhe farṭher I walked.

6. If we leṭ ṭ represenṭ ṭhe number of years since 1900, ṭhen ṭhe populaṭion increased
beṭween ṭ = 0 and ṭ = 40, sṭayed approximaṭely consṭanṭ beṭween ṭ = 40 and ṭ = 50,
and decreased for ṭ ≥ 50. Figure 1.5 shows one possible graph. Many oṭher answers
are also possible.
