Here are descriptions of four situations in which the volume of water in a tank is a function of time. Match each description to a corresponding graph.

Clare describes her morning at school yesterday: “I entered the school on the first floor, then walked up to the third floor and stayed for my class for an hour. Afterwards, I had an hour-long class in the basement, and after that I went back to the ground level and sat outside to eat my lunch."

Sketch a possible graph of her height from the ground floor as a function of time.

Tyler filled up his bathtub, took a bath, and then drained the tub. The function gives the depth of the water, in inches, minutes after Tyler began to fill the bathtub.

These statements describe how the water level in the tub was changing over time. Use the statements to sketch an approximate graph of function.

Two functions are defined by these equations:

Which function has a greater value when is 3.9? How much greater?

Function is defined by the equation . Find the value of so that is true.

Function  gives the volume of water (liters) in a water cooler as a function of time, (minutes).

This graph represents function .

Piecewise graph on coordinate plane, origin O. Horizontal axis, time, minutes, from 0 to 16 by 2’s. Vertical axis, volume, liters, from 0 to 12, by 2’s. Function begins at 0 comma 8, decreasing passing through 2 comma 4 and 4 comma 0, increases until about 10 comma 11, and decreases until 16 comma 8.

1. What is the greatest water volume in the cooler?
2. Find the value or values of that make true. Explain what the value or values tell us about the volume of the water in the cooler. 
3. Identify the horizontal intercept of the graph. What does it tell you about the situation?

Noah draws this box plot for data that has measure of variability 0.

Explain why the box plot is complete even though there do not appear to be any boxes.
