Graphs

The next section on collecting and presenting data was about graphs. Below you have the assignment entitled Graph Lab: Data Presentation. 5th period had to do a review of the SI system so for most of you this ends up being homework.

Your response for each question should be a graph. Don't forget that your graphs have to have a title, labeled axis and have the data demonstrated clearly.

REMEMBER - THIS COUNTS AS A LAB GRADE. Take your time and do the work properly.



Select the best type of graph to present your data and graph the set of data shown.
