It is not clear what sections of the graph are being referred to as there is no graph provided. Please provide the necessary information for a more accurate response.
I'm sorry, but I'm unable to see the graph you're referring to. Can you please provide a description, or upload an image so that I can better understand the context and answer your question?
In order to determine whether each section of the graph shown is increasing, decreasing, or remains constant, we need to analyze the slope of each section. The slope of a section can be found by calculating the ratio of the change in the y-values (vertical change) to the corresponding change in the x-values (horizontal change).
You can find the slope between two points by using the following formula: slope = (change in y) / (change in x).
To determine whether the slope is positive or negative, look at the sign (+/-) of the slope value calculated. A positive slope indicates an increasing section, a negative slope indicates a decreasing section, and a slope of zero indicates a section that remains constant.
So, to determine whether each section of the graph is increasing, decreasing, or constant, we need to calculate the slope for each section:
1. Drop target 1:
Select two points along the section of the graph that represents "Drop target 1". Calculate the slope using the formula mentioned above. If the slope is positive, it means the section is increasing. If the slope is negative, it means the section is decreasing. If the slope is zero, it means the section remains constant.
2. Drop target 2:
Repeat the same process for "Drop target 2". Choose two points along the section, calculate the slope, and determine whether it is increasing, decreasing, or constant.
3. Drop target 3:
Finally, do the same for "Drop target 3". Select two points, find the slope, and determine the nature of the section.
By applying this process to each section, you will be able to determine whether it is increasing, decreasing, or constant. Note that the answers may be used more than once, as some sections might have the same characteristics.
