It is both, a bar graph can be for discrete and continuous it depends on how you set out the chart. If it is for discrete data then you have to have a gap between each bar but on a continuous bar graph they are all next to each other WITHOUT any gaps. Also another way to discover if a bar graph is discrete or continuous the dicrete graph bars are labelled individually but on a continuous they are not labelled as such; there is a scale on the bottom axis. Hope this helps who ever needs it :D
What else can I help you with?
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.
Can a bar graph be used to show discrete data?
Yes.
What kind of graph is commonly used to show discrete data?
A pie chart :) or a bar graph.
Are a line graph and bar graph the same?
No, a line graph and a bar graph are not the same. A line graph is used to show trends or changes over time by connecting data points with lines, while a bar graph uses bars of different lengths to represent different categories or values. Line graphs are ideal for displaying continuous data, while bar graphs are better suited for comparing discrete categories.
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.
Is a linear graph considered to be a continuous graph?
It can be continuous or discrete.

How can you use a graph to find out if the domain is continuous or discrete?
If you can trace the graph without lifting your pencil then it is continuous.
What graph has a finite or limited number of data points is?
A discrete graph.
What data organizer would be best to show a change in data that is not continuous?
A bar graph would be best to show a change in data that is not continuous, as it allows for discrete categories to be visually compared easily. The gaps between bars help to emphasize that the data points are distinct and not continuous.
How can you tell if a graph is a continuous function or a discrete function?
The graph of a continuous function will not have any 'breaks' or 'gaps' in it. You can draw it without lifting your pencil or pen. The graph of a discrete function will just be a set of lines.
What type of graph would be needed for a mode calculation?
For discrete data, a bar chart. For continuous data a grouped frequency chart (histogram).
What is the difference between discrete and continuous graphs?
Discrete and Continuous GraphThis will be a very basic definition but understandable one A graph is discrete when one (or both) of the variables has discrete entries, its means that are entered number, without decimal part, so the graph has no continuity, the trace will be broken parts, not a single one.beside a continuous graph is a graph where both variables are continuous, it means that their field's are de Real number, so the trace it's a continuous line.Also we can differentiated because the range are points (in a discrete one) and all the numbers (in a continuous one).
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
A graph made up of connected lines or curves?
(continuous or discrete)
What is commonly used to show discrete data?
Bar graph.
Can a bar graph be used to show discrete data?
Yes.
