Best Answer

A line graph.

The y-axis would be speed;

For the x-axis, it could be time (showing how the speed varies with time [so far] of the ride).

The x-axis could also use distance as the track will be of a fixed length (showing how the speed varied with distance [travelled so far] on the ride), but the question refers to the two minutes of the ride, hence the suggestion above.

The simplest would be to have a line graph with the 2-minute time span on the horizontal axis and the instantaneous speed on the vertical axis. However, this will not show one of the key characteristics of a roller coaster ride: whether you are ascending, descending or in level motion. This can be addressed in two ways. You could colour-code the graph so that the it ranges from bright red (steep ascent) through purple (level) to bright blue (steep descent). But such a graph will not be accessible to some people with visual problems and you may wish to consider, instead, the width of the line.

Which is the best type of graph to model the speed of a roller coaster over the full two minutes it takes to complete the ride?

A discrete graph. A discrete graph is a visual function that displays data that generally represents counts of things.


Is the complete graph on 5 vertices planar?

No, the complete graph of 5 vertices is non planar. because we cant make any such complete graph which draw without cross over the edges . if there exist any crossing with respect to edges then the graph is non planar.Note:- a graph which contain minimum one edge from one vertex to another is called as complete graph...

When the points on a graph are connected and it makes sense to connect them?

No.If the points on the graph are connected then they are already connected so it would be complete waste of time to connect them.
