What is a line plot?

Back

A line plot is a graph that shows the frequency of data along a number line, using X's or dots to represent each data point.

Front

How do you find the maximum value in a line plot?

Back

To find the maximum value, look for the highest point on the line plot, which represents the largest number in the data set.

Front

What does the term 'frequency' mean in a line plot?

Back

Frequency refers to how many times a particular value appears in the data set, represented by the number of X's or dots above that value.

Front

How can you determine the total from a line plot?

Back

To determine the total, add up all the values represented in the line plot, taking into account their frequency.

Front

What is the purpose of a line plot?

Back

The purpose of a line plot is to visually display data to make it easier to see patterns, trends, and the distribution of values.

Front

How do you read a line plot?

Back

To read a line plot, look at the number line to see the values and count the X's or dots above each value to determine their frequency.

Front

What is the difference between a line plot and a bar graph?

Back

A line plot displays data along a number line with marks for frequency, while a bar graph uses bars to represent the frequency of different categories.

Front

How can you use a line plot to compare data?

Back

You can compare data by looking at the heights of the marks on the line plot to see which values occur more frequently.

Front

What does it mean if a value has a high frequency in a line plot?

Back

A high frequency means that the value appears many times in the data set, indicating it is common among the data points.

Front

How do you identify outliers in a line plot?

Back

Outliers are values that are significantly higher or lower than the rest of the data points, and they can be identified as isolated marks on the line plot.
