Chapter 4.1, Problem 1P

What are the variables in each graph? Describe how the variables are related at various points on the graph.

To determine

To define the variables in given graph and describe the relation of variables at various points on the graph.

Answer to Problem 1P

Variables are volume and time.

As time increases the Volume also increases.

Explanation of Solution

Given information: We have a given graph:

Calculation:

The horizontal axis is labeled as Time. So the independent variable is Time.

The vertical axis is labeled as Volume. So the dependent variable is Volume.

Therefore, given graph is showing variables of Time and Volume.

Shown graph is a straight line that starts from origin (0,0). Volume is increasing at a constant rate.

As time increases the Volume also increases at a constant rate.
