Hint 2 of 2
Match the up/down shape — a dip, then a climb to a single high point, then a fall — to one graph.
Show solution
Approach: match the sequence of values to the right line shape
- The maximums run −1, −2, 0, 6, 2 from Friday to Tuesday.
- So the line must: dip a little, rise, rise to its single highest point on Monday, then fall.
- Only one graph dips at the second point, climbs to a single peak at the fourth point, then drops.
- That graph is (B).
