Organizing Data A graph is a pictorial representation of information recorded in a data table. It is used to show a relationship between two or more factors. Graphs always have: –Title –Axis labels with units

Types of Graphs 1.Line graphs are best for displaying data that change. –It best shows the relationship between two variables.

Line Graphs Independent variable (IV) goes on X-axis Dependent variable (DV) goes on Y-axis Y axis X axis DRY MIX EPENDENTEPENDENT ESPONDINGESPONDING AXISAXIS ANIPULATEDANIPULATED NDEPENDENTNDEPENDENT AXISAXIS

2.Bar graphs are best for comparing data for several individual items or events. Bar graphs use a series of columns to display data.

3.Pie charts are best for displaying data that are parts of a whole.

Create a Graph of Your Own Decide upon a set of data you’d like to collect from classmates (shoe type, height, hair color, etc.) Create a table for your data Create a Bar Graph based on your table Table & Graph should be on page 17 Remember: Title, Labels, Table & COLOR
