These three graphs represent Mr. Kelly's skateboard rolling down a ramp that was raised at different heights (7 in, 14 in, 21 in). As you can see the first graph had a very close prediction; however, the other two had worse predictions. I think this is because I didn't graph the slope of the two graphs fast enough in the beginning. On the 21 inch graph the slope rises the fastest right at the beginning when it is coming of the ramp and falls the fastest from 20 seconds to 30 seconds with the domain of (0,37) and range of (0,65). On the 14 inch graph the slope rises the fastest at the beginning from 21 seconds to 28 seconds the slope falls the fastest with the domain of (0,37) and a range of (0,57) . Lastly, on the 7 in ramp, the graph slopes rises the fastest in the beginning but never falls with a domain of (0,16) and a range of (0,44). As you can see both 21 in ramp and 14 inch ramp have the same domain but the higher the ramp is raised the higher the maximum.
This graph or my "art" was created in desmos, an online graphing calculator. I used a series of different function such as linear, sine, and quadratic, functions. The shaded areas are less than or greater than functions.
