Question

luis created the graph below to show the temperature from 8:00 a.m. (8 hours after midnight) until 8:00 p.m. on this graph, 4:00 p.m. occurs at 16 hours after midnight, and 6:00 p.m. occurs at 18 hours after midnight. which statements are true about the temperatures luis recorded on the graph? select three answers. the temperature increased until 4:00 p.m. the temperature was not recorded between 4:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. the temperature decreased after 6:00 p.m. the temperature increased and then decreased before holding constant. the temperature increased more quickly between 12:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. than before 12:00 p.m.

Explanation:

1. Analyze the graph's slope for temperature - change information. A positive slope means an increase in temperature, a negative slope means a decrease, and a zero - slope means the temperature is constant.
2. Between 4:00 p.m. (16 hours after midnight) and 6:00 p.m. (18 hours after midnight), the graph has a negative slope, indicating a decrease in temperature.
3. Before 4:00 p.m., the temperature was increasing. After 6:00 p.m., the temperature is also increasing again.
4. Comparing the steepness of the lines before and after 12:00 p.m., the line between 12:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. is steeper, meaning the temperature increased more quickly in this period.

Answer:

• The temperature increased more quickly between 12:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. than before 12:00 p.m.
• The temperature decreased after 6:00 p.m.
• The temperature increased and then decreased before holding constant.
