line on a Cartesian graph is approximately the distance y in feet a person walks in x hours. What does the slope of this line represent? How is this graph useful? Provide another example for your colleagues to explain. The slope of the line represents the speed of the person in feet per hour. This graph is useful because it provides a visual representation of the continuous motion of the person walking‚ something that could not provided by something like a bar graph. In a bar graph‚ the sheer number

Graphs 1‚ 2‚ 3‚ and 4 show the waveforms for the flute‚ violin‚ piano‚ and oboe. The Fourier Series can be used to explain why each of the instruments have their own unique sound. The flute‚ violin‚ piano and oboe have different combinations of frequencies as each waveform is made of an unique combination of sine and cosine waves‚ and this creates distinct waveforms and allows each instrument to have a unique sound. Recall that the formula of the Fourier Series is f(x)=a_0+∑_(k=1)^∞▒(a_k cos〖πkx/T〗+b_k

Misleading Graphs Team C Introduction to Statistics—QNT/273 February 7‚ 2011 Jeffrey McDonough Misleading Graphs “Graphs give a visual representation that enables readers to analyze and interpret data more easily than they could simply by looking at numbers. However‚ inappropriately drawn graphs can misrepresent the data and lead the reader to false conclusions” (Bluman‚ 2009‚ p.76). Some methods used by graph makers to mislead consumers are truncated axis starting points and using two

phrase ‘eng papered up in journals‚ daily and weekly‚ obtruded fragmentary accounts of deaths and dreadful murders’ contributes majorly to the general theme of the text‚ and ‘picture-frame of ghastly bandages’ adds to the sinister impression of the description. There is an element of personification which creates a morbid retrospective: ‘some fragments of the straw that had been strewn before the house when she was ill‚ mildewed

Graph theory - the study of graphs and networks‚ is often considered part of combinatorics‚ but has grown large enough and distinct enough‚ with its own kind of problems‚ to be regarded as a subject in its own right.[12] Graphs are one of the prime objects of study in discrete mathematics. They are among the most ubiquitous models of both natural and human-made structures. They can model many types of relations and process dynamics in physical‚ biological and social systems. In computer science‚

increased‚ the acceleration also increases. The acceleration is directly proportional to the sine of the incline angle‚ (. A graph of acceleration versus sin( can be extrapolated to a point where the value of sin( is 1. When sin is 1‚ the angle of the incline is 90°. This is equivalent to free fall. The acceleration during free fall can then be determined from the graph. Galileo was able to measure acceleration only for small angles. You will collect similar data. Can these data be used in

Simile A simile is a figure of speech that directly compares two different things‚ usually by employing the words "like" or "as". We can use similes to make descriptions more emphatic or vivid. For example‚ “She dealt with moral problems as a cleaver deals with meat.” 5. Oxymoron This is a part of speech that combines contradictory terms.
