Problem 95Multiple Choice

During a fireworks display, the concentration of smoke particles $S$ (in $µ {g/m}^{3}$ ) in the air changes over time $t$ (in $minutes$ ). The accompanying figure shows how the smoke concentration changes over time.

During what time intervals is the smoke concentration increasing? What does this indicate about the derivative during those times?

The smoke concentration is increasing from $t equals 0$ to $t equals 20$ $minutes$ , and the derivative is negative during this interval.

The smoke concentration is increasing from $t equals 0$ to $t equals 20$ $minutes$ , and the derivative is positive during this interval.

The smoke concentration is increasing from $t equals 20$ to $t equals 40$ $minutes$ , and the derivative is positive during this interval.

The smoke concentration is increasing from $t equals 20$ to $t equals 40$ $minutes$ , and the derivative is negative during this interval.
