What else can I help you with?
When do you use a line graph and when do you use a bar graph?
Bar graphs are used when graphing a qualitative independent variable, but a line graph is used when the independent variable is quantitative. Also when you are comparing quantity of objects(bar graph)
What type of data can line graphs display?
Line graphs are used to display data to show how one variable (the Responding variable) changes in response to another variable (the Manipulated variable).
Say someone used a line graph to show info about the number of CDs she owned by different arists.Is a line graph a good choiceto show data.... Why or why not?
A line graph is not a good way to represent the data as the number of CDs is a continuous variable, but the artists are a discrete, categoric variable. A line graph should be used when both variables are continuous. A bar chart or bar graph should be used when one variable is continuous and one is discrete.
Is a line graph best used when one variable causes another variable to change in value?
Sometimes
Is a line graph used to show continuous data?
It can be, but not necessarily. If I had the heights (continuous variable) of a class of students I might use a histogram. Conversely, if I had the number of cars (discrete variable) driving by every minute, I would use a line graph. It all depends on which kind of graph conveys the information to your audience in the best way.

Where does the manipulated variable go on a graph?
The manipulated variable, also known as the independent variable, is typically plotted along the x-axis of a graph. This variable is controlled by the experimenter and is used to observe its effect on the responding variable, which is usually plotted on the y-axis.

Is a line graph best used when one variable causes another variable to change in value?
Sometimes
What is is a responding variable?
It means the factor that changes as a result of changes to the manipulated, or independent, variable in an experiment; also called dependent variable.
What two variables are plotted on the garph?
The two variables plotted on a graph depend on the type of graph being used. In a typical line graph, the y-axis (vertical) represents the dependent variable, while the x-axis (horizontal) represents the independent variable.
What is a variable representing the value being manipulated or changed called?
A variable is a symbol or name used to represent a value that can be manipulated or changed during the course of a program.
Which graph is used to show change in a given variable when a second variable is changed?
A line graph is typically used to show the relationship between two variables and how one variable changes when the other variable is changed. The x-axis represents one variable and the y-axis represents the other variable. Lines connecting data points show how the variable being measured changes as the other variable changes.

Why line graph is used for temperature in a climate graph?
the line graph is the temperature!
