What is a graph? A visual display of information or data

Line Graph Are used to show trends or how the data change over time

Bar Graph Is used for comparing information collected by counting

Circle Graphs or Pie Charts Is used to show how some fixed quantity is broken down into parts. The circle represents the total and the slices represent the parts

Interpreting Graphs Inverse or Negative relationship

Interpreting Graphs Positive Relationship
