Before going to its advantages and dis advantages , I would like to tell you why line graph is used.
Basically line graph is one of the main tool of Problem Solving techniques.
Line graph is the graphical presentation of the collected data in order to understand , analyze, conclude the data in a most easiest way
Lets take the example of an organization,
Every Organization is constituted of various processes. All the processes are well defined in terms of time, productivity and quality. But are all the processes under control? To get this information , we plot the line graph.
The first step to plot the line graph is to gather the data first of the division/department/issue/ problem of which you want to see the current trend.
Take an another example of data collection
We take the data of a man whose temperature we recorded at different time
@Time 10.00 : Temp: 101 degree Celsius
@Time 11.00 : Temp: 104 degree Celsius
@Time 12.00 : Temp: 100 Degree Celsius
@Time 1.00 : Temp: 98 degree Celsius
and so on
Then Represent this data on the X-Y axis taking time ( always) on x axis and Temperature on Y axis
Advantages of Line Graph:
Since this graph is always represented with respect to time so the graph reader can analyse the status of the activity/Task/ Process/issue/problem/ temperature ( as defined above) @ different time variations. And there where we see the status is out of control ( i.e. at peak or at far bottom), this graph exhibits the need of improvement.
Time may be months, Days, dates, hours, seconds, minutes etc.
Disadvantage of line graph:
Graph only represents the trend. But it doesn't go to the root cause of the identified issue .
As in above example of the collected data of temperature at different time , only indicates the temperature. But doesn't tell how this temperature occurred, the graph doesn't represent.
It is easier to read because it can be not as cluttered as a bar graph or scatter plot graph.
you can easily compare to different subjects
the advantages fo using a line graph is that is shows trends over time and with a bar chart it shows ammount
You can compare infomation about several variables at the same time.
a double line graph is a graph that is same as a line graph but there are two lines
Advantages and disadvantges
Advantages and disadvantges
It is easier to read because it can be not as cluttered as a bar graph or scatter plot graph.
Advantages of social change include promoting progress, addressing issues, and creating a more equitable society. However, disadvantages can include resistance to change, disruption of stability, and unequal impacts on different groups.
Advantages: For very long distances. Disadvantages: It create pollution to our envirnoment

the disadvantges are they are very expensive and the surface of the whiteboard can easily be stained

line graph x line graph = divided line graph
no because the broken line graph is a line graph that is broken da!
