What is the meaning of the slope of a straight line graph?
The slope is therise divided by the run. Or in Cartesian coordinate terms: delta Y / delta X It is how steep the line is. 0 slope is parallel to the X axis. A slope of 1 rises 1 unit Y for every unit X (up and to the right)
What data must you have to make a line graph?
You can draw a line graph if you have
-- the slope of the line and one point on the line
OR
-- two points on the line

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.
Where do you put the independent and dependent variables on a histogram?
Independent on the x-axis (horizontal) and dependent on the y-axis (vertical).
A set of data that can be graphed with a bar graph but not with a histogram?
A histogram graphs the frequency of how often a specific item falls into a specific category. For instance a histogram would show how many buildings in a city are two, three, four stories, etc... A bar graph compares a specific trait of several candidates. For instance. If you were asked to compare the population of several cities a bar graph would show each cities exact value. a histogram would show how many of the cities fall into different size ranges.
Try this: take a group out to ice cream. How many want sprinkles? how many want chocolate? etc....
How do you plot line graph from y axis?
you put nothing on the y axis because dis isn't like a coordinate graph
What are some examples of where you need a pie chart?
how many people out of 100 like blue green or yellow or out of 100 people wat is there favorite foods
What is the definition of a bar graph?
A bar graph is a visual display formed by lines or bars across a scaled grid. The relative lengths of the bars (horizontal or vertical) indicates the values represented.
How do you pick the intervals for a bar graph?
you can look at the problem...
you see how many spaces there are inbetween the most and least.
then you have to make sure it is the same amount like....
11-19
20-29
30-39
40-49
and on like that.
What is a pie chart slice shape called?
A slice, a segment or a sector.
What is the definition of a double line graph?
a graph that uses two lines connected by points to show value
Where On a line graph the dependent variable is plotted on what axis?
The dependent variable is usually plotted on the "y" or ordinal axis.
How could you plot than one responding variable on a line graph?
Plot different kinds of lines like a dotted or colored line.
Write a C program to make a vertical histogram?
/* Vertical Histogram of words in a Sentence */
#include<stdio.h>
#define MAXWL 20 /* Maximum length of a word */
#define MAXNO 25 /* Maximum No of words in a sentence */
int main(void)
{
int word[MAXNO];
int i,c,j,nc,nw;
for(i=0;i<MAXNO;++i)
word[i]=0;
nc = nw = 0;
while( (c=getchar()) != EOF)
{
++nc;
if( c ==' ' c =='
' c ==' ')
{
word[nw] = nc -1; /* -1 for excluding the space in the word length */
++nw;
nc = 0; /* resetting the word-length for the next word */
}
}
for( i = MAXWL; i >= 1; --i)
{
for(j=0;j <= nw;++j)
{
if( i <= word[j])
putchar('*');
else
putchar(' ');
}
putchar('
');
}
return 0;
}
Which type of data would be best represented in a line graph?
A line graph shows trends over a period of time. Data could include percentages of people who go to Disneyland over ten years, or how many people die of a particular disease each year.
How do you set out a line graph showing current vs voltage?
its like a bar graph but with little crosses and you join them up with lines
Would a histogram help you interpret data?
In many cases, histograms help interpretations. But you can probably think of cases where this is not true. Perhaps you have too few values. Perhaps your data has many flaws or errors in it. Sometimes, people will select the data that they want think supports their idea, and make histograms using only this data. See related link on histogram.
Pie graphs are good for showing a percent of something.
