Question
The diagram shows the rate of water going over a dam (cubic meters per day) over a 60-day period. What does the area under the graph of these data represent?
A. The total volume of water that flowed over the dam during the 60-day period
B. The maximum rate of water that flowed over the dam during the 60-day period
C. The average rate of water that flowed the dam during the 60-day period
D. The rate of change of the flow rate of water over the dam during the 60-day period
13. Use the graph below to answer the question that follows. 10 20 30 40 50 60 Time (days) The diagram shows the rate of water going over a dam (cubic meter What does the area under the graph of these data represent?Explanation / Answer
The area under the graph of this data is = Rate of flow per day x Number of days = Total volume of water that flowed over the dam during the 60-day period.
Hence the correct choice is A.
