The statement D is true. since it states that "the group began with 40 members and is increasing in size". In the it is shown that the curve is increasing (y- values) with respect to the years mentioned on x-axis.
What is graph?
- Graph is a pictorial representation of relationship between two or more things
- There are different types of graphs. some of them are line graph, bar graph, pie chart etc.
- From the graph we can say that how the things are related like either they are increasing or decreasing
- For 2D, graph consists two axes- x-axis and y-axis and the graph function is given by the equation [tex]y=f(x)[/tex].
Given data:
- Charles and his friends started a community group in 2008 to address problems in their neighborhood and to host civic events.
- The number of members changed over time as shown in the graph
- x-axis represents the number of years since 2008
- y-axis represents the number of members.
Observation from the graph:
- From the graph the function [tex]y=f(x)[/tex] is increasing as the increase in x-values
- So, as the years are increasing since 2008 the number of members in the group also increasing
- The graph started at x=1 (that is 2008) with 40 members in the group and at x=10 it has 375 members
Therefore, the statement at Option D - "The function indicates that the group began with 40 members and is increasing in size" is true.
