How are bar graphs and picture graph different?

Graphs are pictures that help us understand amounts. These amounts are called data. There are many kinds of graphs, each having special parts. A circle graph is shaped like a circle. It is divided into fractions that look like pieces of pie, so sometimes a circle graph is called a pie graph. Many times the fractional parts are different colors and a key explains the colors. A bar graph uses bars to show data. The bars can be vertical (up and down), or horizontal (across). The data can be in words or numbers. A picture graph uses pictures or symbols to show data. One picture often stands for more than one vote so a key is necessary to understand the symbols. A histogram is a special kind of bar graph. The data must be shown as numbers in order. A line graph shows points plotted on a graph. The points are then connected to form a line.

How are circle graphs line graphs and bar graphs different?

a circle graph is in a circular form and represents your data using pieces inside of itbar graphs represents data using bars

Which graph shows frequency ranges of data histogram bar graph line graph or circle graph?

Histogram which is a type of bar graph. The data is grouped into equal ranges and the bars show how many occurances are in each range.

How can you use a bar graph to determine which state had the least number of votes?

Find the shortest bar and read what state it represents. (In a bar graph, the length of each bar is proportional to the number it represents. )

How do you find percentage in a histogram?

To find the percentage in a histogram you need to add the numbers together and divide how many numbers you have. For example, if you have four customers that spend $20, $25, $30, and $35, you would add the totals together and divide by four.

What is the difference between bar graph and block graph?

Bar graphs are when it goes up and blocks is jut l

Causes of water in a pie chart or bar chart?

Causes of Water in a pie chart should be shown because its easier to understand the causes of water problems in a pie charts rather than a bar graph b'coz studying a pie chart is easy b'coz the percentages of the information is given rather than studying numbers in a bar graph and now a days in the world when we make a projets where pie chart is included its very to study that information ( of that projet :p) .

Why was Sandy's choice of a line graph a good one for this set of data?

It's impossible to tell unless we have both the graph and the set of data.

Why are bar graphs used for certain types of data?

A bar graph is used to show different totals in different categories.

What is two thirds on a pie graph?

A full pie graph is 360 degrees.

2/3 of that = 240 degrees.

(what is left over is the other one-third = 120 degrees)

How do you find the x-axis on a line graph?

The x-axis is the horizontal line that correlates with the vertical y-axis.

How is it easy to read a pictograph?

Pictographs use pictures with a key to help you read it easily instead of reading a bunch of words and numbers.

What is the advantage of examining the histogram instead of the frequency distribution?

A histogram efficiently presents the same information as the frequency distribution in one visual image and gives all the relevant details in an intuitive format (center, variation, distribution shape, outlier, and time = CVDOT).

What are the advantages and disadvantages using broken line graph?

A broken line graph is useful when there is a large gap between the values of one of the variables.

In the context of graphs over time, this may happen for many reasons. Possible causes are that the data were not available for a period (eg during war), or the method of collection was changed. Nevertheless, if these breaks are explained, the graph can provide indications of long term trends.

The disadvantage is that data on either side of the break, may not be comparable, even with the explanations, and the naive or careless user may be misled.

What is the best graph for numerical information?

The best graph for numerical information will depend on what you want to present. The linear graph, bar and the pie graph are some of the best graphs to present numerical data.

How do you draw a 5 cube long by 4 cubes wide bye 2 cubes high rectangular prism on line graph paper?

Idk how to explain really. Just draw a line going up 2 and from the bottom end make the 5 then sort of go back 4 on the other side
