The function shown below was created to track the different intervals of speed that an automobile travels over a period of 28 seconds.

use the graph of the function to determine which line segment represents each of the following scenarios.

the automobile is traveling at a constant speed:

de
bc
cd
ab

the automobile is traveling at an increasing speed:

cd
de
bc

the automobile is traveling at a decreasing speed:

ab
cd
de
bc

answer: do we write it

step-by-step explanation:

correct answer is b. 27/8

step-by-step explanation:

answer: yes, since the line has a steeper rate of change than the exponential the y-values will be greater and they will only intersect one time.

the image is given below

since the options are not given so we draw it from the equation

the given equation is

y = (x-1) (x+4)

y = y² + 3x - 4

the above equation is a quadratic equation which will have two roots. if we draw the graph for it, it will look like this
