The problem:

A ball is moving at 10 cm/s when clock time is 4 seconds, and at 40 cm/s when clock time is 9 seconds.

• Sketch a v vs. t graph and represent these two events by the points (4 sec, 10 cm/s) and (9 s, 40 cm/s).

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

• Sketch a straight line segment between these points.

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

• What are the rise, run and slope of this segment?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> : Rise = 30, Run = 5, and Slope = 6

• What is the area of the graph beneath this segment?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

AREA OF TRIANGLE:

= (1/2)*b*h

= .5 * 5 * 30

= 75 units^2

AREA OF RECTANGLE BENEATH TRIANGLE:

= l * w

= 5 * 10

= 50 units^2

TOTAL AREA BENEATH SEGMENT:

75 + 50 = 125 units^2
