What is a line graph?

Back

A line graph is a type of chart that shows information as a series of data points called 'markers' connected by straight line segments. It is used to display data that changes over time.

What is the purpose of a line graph?

Back

The purpose of a line graph is to visually represent data to show trends, changes, and relationships over time.

What is the greatest increase in a line graph?

Back

The greatest increase in a line graph is the largest upward change between two points.
