Creating Bar Graphs from GO Math Lesson 2.5

The video tutorial covers lesson 2.5 on creating bar graphs. It begins with an introduction to bar graphs and a survey example. The tutorial then explains the steps to create a bar graph using survey data, including choosing a title, scale, and labels. It demonstrates data representation using a walkathon example and a spinner experiment. Finally, it covers creating a bar graph for basketball players' points scored. The video emphasizes understanding scales, labels, and data representation in bar graphs.

What is the first step in creating a bar graph?

• Draw the bars

• Label the axes

• Write a title at the top

• Choose a color scheme

What should the scale of the bar graph be adjusted to if the highest data point is 14?

• 0 to 16

• 0 to 15

• 0 to 20

• 0 to 14

How do you determine the placement of a bar for a value not explicitly marked on the scale?

• Skip the value

• Ask for help

• Estimate the position

• Use a different graph
