What the importance of bars in bar graphs?
They are essential by definition. It is not possible to have a bar graph with no bars!
What is a drawing that tells information like a graph?
It is not clear what the question is about but I suspect that the answer you are looking for is a PICTOGRAM.
How does a line with a zero axis look on a graph?
It is not possible to answer the questions since there is no such thing as a zero axis.
Is a pie chart is used to compare parts to a whole quantity?
Yes. A pie chart is used to visually compare the parts of the whole.
Could you use a circle graph to show dad about how body mass changes?
No. A circle graph can be used for showing the relationship between a variable and its component parts. It is not suitable for illustrating changes over time.
What are ways a circle graph could be misleading?
Here are two main ways:
Represent a single circle graph as a 3-D image. If there are two sectors of the same size, with one at the front of the graph and other at the back, then because of the way in which the brain interprets distance, the sector at the back is judged as being bigger than the one in front.
If two (or more) graphs are used to show changes in the composition of different totals: for example populations within age-bands in two countries it is normal to select the sizes (areas) of the circles to represent the totals. However, most people are unable to visually convert a circle with a radius which is 1.42 (approx) times as large as representing a doubling of the area.
What do pie chart line graph and bar graph have in common?
They are ways in which data can be presented visually.
How is a bar graph and dot plots similar?
A dot plot is similar to a bar graph because they both can give you the same amount of pets and other things that you might use them for.
How is a bar graph and dot plots different?
They are different because It is easier to see the amount of the subject you are using on a bar graph than a dot plot because you can get the answer faster and more quickly.
No. A circle graph can be used for showing the relationship between a variable and its component parts. It is not suitable for illustrating changes over time.
Can you use a circle graph to show data about how body mass changes with height?
No. A circle graph can be used for showing the relationship between a variable and its component parts. It is not suitable for illustrating changes over time.
What kind of data that is best displayed as a pie chart?
The relationship between the whole and its constituent parts.
Normally it would be a point which is 2.5 units to the right of the origin and 3.5 units up.
What is the extra axis on a 3-D pie chart is called?
A 3-D pie chart should never be used - unless the intention is to mislead - because of the way in which the brain interprets distance.. Furthermore, the third axis is irrelevant.
Why don't you use a circle graph to show data about how body mass changes height?
It is not a suitable form of graph. A circle graph can be used for showing the relationship between a variable and its component parts. It is not suitable for illustrating changes with height.
What type of graphs do scientist use when they have completed their data tables?
There are several types of charts and graphs; the choice of graph type depends on what kind of information you are trying to present, and how you want to emphasize it. If you want to focus on percentages without stressing the actual numbers, a pie chart works well. if you want to focus on the actual numbers, a bar chart or histogram might depict that best.
