c.
To find: How the graph relates to the given function.
When the angle of elevation increases,the distance from the top of the ride decreases.
Given information:
The ride is
Calculation:
Let's plot the graph for the given function,
The function is given by,
Finding the values of
The graph shows that the friend's distance from the top of the ride reduces as the angle of elevation is increased.
Therefore, when the angle of elevation increases, the distance from the top of the ride decreases.
