Problem C1
Look at the graph below. Who is represented by each point?

Don't worry that there are no numbers on the axes. This helps you focus on the representation and its meaning rather than just a picture of the situation. Close Tip


Problem C2
What would the graph for this problem look like with the axes reversed?

Problems in Part C are taken from The Language of Functions and Graphs, by Malcolm Swan and the Shell Centre Team (Nottingham, U.K.: Shell Centre Publications, 1986, 1999, www.mathshell.com).
