9/19/16 HOW to make a graph Objective: I will construct a graph from a data table and include all of the required parts of a graph. PAGE 11

1. Choose the type of graph line graph: analyze trends over time

1. Choose the type of graph bar graph: compare categorical data

2. Set up the x and y axis x-axis is horizontal y-axis is vertical x y

3. Identify the independent and dependent variables IV: the variable we control (x-axis) DV: the variable we measure (y-axis)

4. Label each axis with IV or DV remember to include the units!!!

4. Label each axis with IV or DV y (cm) Distance Time (minutes)

5. Choose an appropriate scale The scale must: Fit the set of data Be in even increments

5. Choose an appropriate scale Time (minutes) Distance (cm)

5. Choose an appropriate scale

6. Plot the data line graph: find the point where the x-value and y-value intersect bar graph: draw a bar up to data value

6. Plot the data (x,y) (4,4) (7,8) Time (minutes) Distance (cm) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 (x,y) (4,4) (7,8)

7. Choose a title Can be a creative title or... DV vs. IV ex. “Distance vs. Time”

5. Choose an appropriate scale x y Time Distance (minutes) (cm) 1 1 1 1 1
