1. Setting up graphs for Mr. Berger’s class!

2. How to set up your graph!

3. How to set up your graph!
Make Y Axis
Make X Axis

4. How to set up your graph! Y Axis X Axis - Independent Variable (I.V.)
Dependent Variable (D.V.)
X Axis - Independent Variable (I.V.)

5. TAILS
___________ vs. __________
(I.V.) (D.V.)
T - Title

6. TAILS T - Title A - Axis Y Axis = Dependent Variable (D.V.)
___________ vs. __________
(I.V.) (D.V.)
T - Title
A - Axis
Y Axis = Dependent Variable (D.V.)
X Axis = Independent Variable (I.V.)

7. TAILS T - Title A – Axis S – Scale
Decide on an appropriate scale for each axis.
Choose a scale that lets you make the graph as large as possible for your paper and data
T - Title
A – Axis
S – Scale

8. How to determine scale
Substance
Boiling Pt.
(0C)
Felox
Honium 24
Depster 53
Voidium 79
Grepsum
100
Scale is determined by your highest & lowest number.
In this case your scale would be from 0 – 100.

9. How to determine Intervals
The interval is decided by your scale.
In this case your scale would be from 0 – 100 and you want the scale to fit the graph.
The best interval would be to go by 20’s.
Substance
Boiling Pt.
(0C)
Felox
Honium 24
Depster 53
Voidium 79
Grepsum
100

10. TAILS T – Title A – Axis I – Interval S – Scale
The amount of space between one number and the next or one type of data and the next on the graph.
The interval is just as important as the scale
Choose an interval that lets you make the graph as large as possible for your paper and data
Find difference 0 – 100 is 100 then count blocks available on the axis which was 5. Divide 100/5 to get 20 so each block must at least go by 20.
T – Title
A – Axis
I – Interval
S – Scale

11. TAILS
T – Title
A – Axis
I – Interval
S – Scale
100 80 60 40 20

12. TAILS T – Title A – Axis I – Interval L – Labels S – Scale
Substance vs. Boiling Point
T – Title
A – Axis
I – Interval
L – Labels
S – Scale
100 80 60
Boiling Point (0C) 40 20
LABEL your bars or data points
Felox
Honium
Depster
Voidium
Grepsum
Substance
Label your Y Axis. What do those numbers mean?
Give the bars a general label. What do those words mean?

13. When to use… Bar graphs Line Graphs
Used to show data that are not continuous.
Allows us to compare data like amounts or frequency or categories
Allow us to make generalizations about the data
Help us see differences in data
Line Graphs
For continuous data
useful for showing trends over time
