To represent:
The given situation graphically.
Answer to Problem 67PPE
Graph representing the given situation is as under:
Or given situation is represented by a linear relationship that`s slope is positive.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Given a situation, “A grandfather clock that is 100 years old has increased its value from when it was first purchased.”
Concept used:
With the time increasing, the cost of any antique item also go on increasing, depending upon current market conditions.
Calculation:
Value of the clock can be decided every year as it is already 100 years old. So, each year, its cost will go on increasing, so the relation between years and value of the clock is an increasing function, so that with the increases in independent variable (years here), value of dependent variable (value of the clock) will also go on increase.
Conclusion:
So, as this relation will be an increasing relation, its graph should be best represented as a linear function having positive slope as shown above.
