standard_description: Construct a function to model a linear relationship between two quantities. Determine the rate of change and initial value of the function from a description of a relationship or from two (x, y) values, including reading these from a table or from a graph. Interpret the rate of change and initial value of a linear function in terms of the situation it models, and in terms of its graph or a table of values.
problem_activity: Create a graph of a function that represents the height above the ground of the passenger car for a 225- foot diameter Ferris wheel that completes three turns, where each turn takes 2 minutes. Assume passengers board at the bottom of the wheel, which is 5 feet above the ground, and that the ride begins immediately afterward. Provide appropriate labels on the axes.
Explain how the features of your graph relate to the situation.
