Graphing

2. Graphing
A graph is a visual display of information or data. There are 3 main types of graphs: 1. Line Graph 2. Bar Graph 3. Pie Chart

3. Line Graphs
A line graph shows trends of how data changes over time.

4. Line Graph Variables
When you create a line graph, you will always plot the independent variable on the X-axis (horizontal) and the dependent variable on the Y-axis (vertical).

5. Line Graph Variables
If you have a formula like: Velocity = distance time Time = Independent Variable on X-axis Distance = Dependent Variable on Y-axis

6. Line Graph Variables
How would you plot density? Density = mass volume Volume = Independent Variable on X-axis Mass = Dependent Variable on Y-axis

7. Bar Graphs
A bar graph compares information by counting.

8. Pie Charts
A pie chart shows a fixed quantity broken into parts.
