Respuesta :

the last graph is correct

The fourth graph is showing the correct relation between the leaf’s height in feet as a function of time, in seconds.

What is a graph?

A graph is the representation of the data on the vertical and horizontal coordinates so we can see the trend of the data.

The height is 12 feet and the rate of falling of leaf is 0.25 feet per second.

Check for the 20th-second leaf's position.

Position = 0.25 x 20 = 5 feet

So in 20 seconds leaf will travel 5 feet so the height of the leaf from the ground is,

H = 12-5 = 7 feet

The fourth graph is showing the position at 7 feet in 20 seconds.

Therefore, the fourth graph is showing the correct relation between the leaf’s height in feet as a function of time, in seconds.
