Question

When Jules loses a golf ball he takes another from the box. Which graph models this relationship?

Answer 1

Answer:

the last one, d

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The answer would be D, the last picture you attached with the separate points going downward. Let's break this down.

First, we know that he is gradually losing golf balls, because he keeps losing them and taking out new ones from the box. Therefore, we can assume that as he loses more and more golf balls, there would be less in the box. Therefore, we know the line has to go down.

Then, let's look at the points. One is a straight line going down, while another is dotted. This is the difference between a continuous and an noncontinuous graph. A noncontinuous graph means only certain points work, while a continuous means that any point on the line works. We know he can't have half a golf ball in the box, so only whole numbers work. This means that the graph must be noncontinuous, meaning the answer is D.
