 Problem 2.4 and Follow Up~  Chincoteague Island to Norfolk

=Big Idea: Graphs help us to identify the changes of distance and time. Tables helps us to identify the info about total distance and time. =

=**Essential Question: Explain how you can plot and graph incomplete data? ** =

=Class Notes =

> ====Almost everyone chose tables over graphs, including me. And we listed the Pros and Cons of Tables and Graphs. ====
 * ====Connect the line for continuous events on graphs such as- Time and Bike Riding. ====
 * ====Do not Connect the dots on a Scatter Plot for discontinuous events such as Jumping Jacks and Time. ====

__Problem 2.4__
A. ** Make a table of (Time, Distance) data that reasonably fits the information in Malcom and Sarah's Notes. **

B. ** Sketch a Coordinate Graph that shows the same information. (I didn't have enough time to scan a picture on so I just made a Scatter Plot Online) ** <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">For the Scatter plot the website couldn't read the times so 8:30 becomes zero and 9:00 become 0.5 and so on. I created two plots one where the dots are connected and one where the dots are not connected.

__**<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">NOTES: **__


 * 1) We started 8:30 A.M. and rode in to a strong wind until our mid-morning break.
 * 2) About mid-morning the wind shifted to our backs.
 * 3) We stopped for lunch at a BBQ stand and rested for about an hour. By this time, we had traveled about half way to Norfolk.
 * 4) At around 2:00 P.M., we stopped for a brief swim in the ocean.
 * 5) At around 3:30 P.M., we reached the North end of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge and Tunnel. We stopped for a few minutes to watch the ships passing by. Since bikes are prohibited on the bridge, the riders put their bikes in the van, and we drove across the bridge.
 * 6) We took 7 and a half hours to complete today's 80-mile trip.

**__<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">HOW THEY HELPED: __**

 * 1) ﻿<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">This means that they went slower until mid-morning which I estimated ended around 11:30, so up till then they went slowly and only traveled about 5 miles in a hour.
 * 2) <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">They started to speed up after 11:30 because the wind was pushing them forward.
 * 3) <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">I inferred that they had lunch from 12:30 to 1:30 which serves as their one hour lunch break.
 * 4) <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">They only traveled about 6 miles with from 1:30 to 2:00 so the wind was against their backs pushing them forward so they swam for about 15 to 30 minutes.
 * 5) <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">I showed that they used a van from 3:30 to 4:00 so instead of only going about 8 mph they went at 13 mph.
 * 6) <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">I took 7 and a half hours and using the notes above i divided the distances so that the amount of mph that they traveled fit the description of that time range.
