Javier asked the members of his 4-H club how many projects they were taking. The results are shown in the table. Make a line plot of the data. Then describe the data in the graph. (Textbook p. 768, a) Number of Projects 24331 05422 13212 o 0 1 2 3 4 5 o oooooo Number of Projects Step 4: Title the line plot. Step 2: Determine the scale. oooooooo oooooo oooooooooo o o
