Lesson 12.1/12.5 Line Plots/Line Graphs Tuesday, March 7 Lesson 12.1/12.5 Line Plots/Line Graphs

Line Plots/Line Graphs Objective: To construct and analyze line plots and line graphs.

Line Plots/Line Graphs A line plot is a visual display of a distribution of data values where each data value is shown as a dot or other mark. Line plots are also known as dot plots.
