I am not sure why there wasn't a set of exercises on speed till now... That's speed/distance/time just in case you'd taken that the wrong way!

Self-marking = more time to address misconceptions.

Thanks so much for the screenshot. You’ve probably guessed that the values of a, b and c are generated randomly within a set range. I have reduced that range for levels 4 and 5. Yes the other issue is caused by your browser’s font size overwriting the web page font size. Thanks.
Good question. I have put my thoughts about this at the bottom of the activity page.

I wanted the challenge to be quite different from what can be done with Desmos so the moving provides a different approach.
I have just put this together for a student to use later today. She was having trouble understanding transformation of trig graphs las time I saw here.
