With great difficulty. This is because if the variable is recorded by people, it will be rounded. That process will make it discrete - even if the underlying variable is continuous.
For example, time is a continuous variable, but time is normally recorded in seconds. At track events it may be measured in hundredths of seconds and in some labs in much smaller units. Nevertheless it will always be in discrete "chunks".
What else can I help you with?
What is a clue that a data set should be displayed as a line graph?
Probably where both variables are continuous.
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 does a line graph related to?
It is related to the two variables that are plotted in the line graph.It is related to the two variables that are plotted in the line graph.It is related to the two variables that are plotted in the line graph.It is related to the two variables that are plotted in the line graph.
What is a continuous line graph?
a continuous line graph is a graph that is similar to a broken line graph but it always grows higher and higher it never goes down. e.g. age
What sort of graph or chart is best for continuous variables?
I would say pie chart but that would be too complicated so an easier but different way would be line graph
Why should you use a line graph?
when both of your variables are continuous sets of data

What is a line graph in the coordinate plane that has no breaks in it?
It is a continuous line graph.

What is a line graph?
A continuous graph that shows change over time.
A graph displays data that occurs in a continuous manner?
---LINE
What type of graph shows continuous data?
a line graph
What can a line graph tell you about the relationship between the variables in an experiment?
A line graph can tell you how changes in one variable are related to changes in the other. A line graph cannot show causality. A line graph can show non-linear relationships which some other analytical techniques may not identify. In particular, they are good for identifying relationships between the variables that change over the domain. A line graph can also help identify points where the nature of the relationship changes - eg tension and breaking point, or temperature and phase. The spread of observations about the "line of best fit" gives a measure of how closely the variables are related and how much of the measurement is systemic or random error.
