What graph is used to discrete data?

Any kind of graph can be used for discrete data.


What are the differences between line graph and line plot?

On a line graph, the points are connected by a line. Hence the name 'line graph". A line plot is, A line plot can be used as an initial record of discrete data values. The range determines a number line which is then plotted with X's for each data value.


Discrete and Continuous data is used in mathematics?

Yes it is. Discrete data is something that's set. Like say you were making a line graph about renting bikes. You can only rent whole bikes there is nothing in between. You shouldn't connect points on a line graph with discrete data but some cases can be argued. Continuous data is usually a measurement that could change like time.


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.


What is the different of straight line graph and broken line graph?

Straight line graphs show continuous data (like your distance from something over time). Ones that have skips in the line are representations of noncontinuous, or discrete data (like how many papers you have in a folder).

What is commonly used to show discrete data?

Bar graph.


Can a bar graph be used to show discrete data?

Yes.


What kind of graph is use to show discrete data?

A bar graph shows discreet data, but other types can also.


What is a line graph in the coordinate plane that has no breaks in it a qualitative graph a continuous graph a discrete graph a cosmograph?

Not qualitative


How are a bar graph and a line graph different?

a bar graph is a graph that displays data using bars and a line graph is a graph that displays data in a line


What kind of graph is commonly used to show discrete data?

A pie chart :) or a bar graph.
