Bar Graph
Useful for graphing items with different categories

Whatever helps me get the point across

Ideal for showing percentages(fractions)
All the parts add up to a whole

To find the percentage
• Divide the number in whichever category by the total number.– 10 students are too hot– 12 students are too cold– 2 students aren’t sure– 1 Teacher thinks it is just right
• The total is 25
![Page 9: Graphing Data. 3 Types of Graphs Bar Graph Line Graph Circle (or Pie) Graph.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062303/551574b8550346486b8b5034/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
To find the percentage
• 10/25 = 40% are too hot• 12/25 = 48% are too cold• 2/25 = 8% aren’t sure• 1/25 = 4% is just right
• When making the graph:– 1 circle is 360° = 100%– Each percent is 3.6°

Line graph
• A line graph is useful when a dependent variable changes due to a relationship with an independent variable.
• The independent variable is “x”• The dependent variable is “y”
![Page 11: Graphing Data. 3 Types of Graphs Bar Graph Line Graph Circle (or Pie) Graph.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062303/551574b8550346486b8b5034/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Line graph
• We’ll start with an experiment.
![Page 12: Graphing Data. 3 Types of Graphs Bar Graph Line Graph Circle (or Pie) Graph.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062303/551574b8550346486b8b5034/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Line graph
• As we turn the knob, we will take data. The knob location will be x, and the gauge reading will be y.– x=½ and y=0– x=1 and y=1– x=2 and y=3– …and so on
![Page 13: Graphing Data. 3 Types of Graphs Bar Graph Line Graph Circle (or Pie) Graph.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062303/551574b8550346486b8b5034/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Let’s look at our data
• Let’s make a table with our data.
• It may be helpful to sort the data by the independent variable.
X Y½ 01 12 30 -1-1 -3
X Y-1 -30 -1½ 01 12 3

Let’s look at our solutions
• Now let’s plot the solutions on a graph.
X Y-1 -30 -1½ 01 12 3

Tow the line!
• It is reasonable to use the line as the solution rather than just the points.– Interpolation– Extrapolation

If it doesn’t fit…
• Usually, real data doesn’t fit on a perfect line.
• DO NOT play “connect the dots”.
• Make a “regression” line, or “best fit” line.

• Usually, real data doesn’t fit on a perfect line.
• DO NOT play “connect the dots”.
• Make a “regression” line, or “best fit” line.– “Eyeball” it– Use Excel 0

It doesn’t look square!
• We won’t always have a straight line on a graph.
• This is a parabola. It is common in science graphs.

It doesn’t look like anything!
• Often, we can write an equation for a graph.
• Sometimes we can’t.
• That’s okay.
