Abstract: The article discusses a study on how calculus students think covariationally about relationships in which neither variable changes linearly with time. The study involved U.S. middle and high school mathematics teachers who worked individually to teach their classes about the topic. The results showed the creation of graphs by teachers to show a non-linear relationship between the variables.
