Question
Evaluate each of the following statements about how the slope is changing at the different points on the curve above. Consider only the region local to the point, for example, just a millimeter to either side of the point. Consider the signs. The value of a negative slope is less than the value of any positive slope. Consider a slope which is becoming more negative to be decreasing.
1) At point G the slope is _______ as you go to the right.
2) At point A the slope is _______ as you go to the right.
3) At point C the slope is _______ as you go to the right.
4) At point J the slope is _______ as you go to the right.
5) At point I the slope is _______ as you go to the right.
Explanation / Answer
1) At point G the slope is decreasing as you go to the right.
2) At point A the slope is increasing as you go to the right.
3) At point C the slope is constant as you go to the right.
5) At point J the slope is constant as you go to the right.
6) At point I the slope is decreasing as you go to the right.
