Graphing Using Data

What is wrong with this graph?

• The dependent variable is not labeled.

• The data that is graphed is incorrect and a different graph should have been used.

• The intervals on the x and y axis are written incorrectly.

• The color of the graph is not appropriate or professional

You want to create a graph that shows your height over a 12-month period. What type of graph will you use? Why?

• A line graph because you can put the data points on the graph and see how much you grew over a 12-month period.

• Both a line and bar graph would be appropriate because both graphs would be able to show your height over a 12-month period.

• A circle graph because we will be able to easily see your height over a 12-month period.

• A bar graph because the bars will make it very easy to see how you grow over the months.

Which type of graph best represents data over a set period of time?

• Line

• Bar

• Table

• Circle

What is the most important thing you can improve in this graph by using the T.A.I.L.S. method?

• The dependent variable is not labeled correctly

• There is too much data on this graph and it should easier to read.

• The intervals are not done correctly

• The graph doesn't have an appropriate title.

Nancy can type 50 words per minute. Look at the table below to write an equation that matches the data.

• m=50 + w

• w= 50m

• w= 50 + m

• m= 50 - w

What is the equation for this table?

• y = -2x + 5

• y = 2x + 5

• y = 5x - 2

• y = 5x + 5
