it is a bargraph gut it horzontal instead of virtical

= = First of all, you need to open an Excel spreadsheet. Then go to 'TOOLS' in the menu bar and select 'ADD INS.' Choose 'ANALYSIS TOOL PACK' and click okay. Now we're on to making the histogram~ On your excel spreadsheet (the one that contains the data) you're going to have to to create. a column for the number of bins needed. This 'bin' of which I spoke of is the grouping of data based on the range of data you have. Find the range of data by doing this~ First, go to 'DATA' in the menu bar and select 'SORT.' Then choose the column you would like to sort and choose ascending or descending order. Then choose a different column on your spreadsheet and simply add the bins Navigate to "TOOLS, DATA ANALYSIS" and then select Histogram. Click on the small box to the right for input range. Highlight the column on your spreadsheet containing the data that you choose to be binned. This will turn into your frequency value. After that, highlight the bins column for the bin range. Go to 'OUTPUT OPTIONS' and choose 'NEW WORKSHEET PLY:' and then choose a name for the worksheet. It will be set up with a brand new, titled spreadsheet with 2 columns (bin and frequency). Then you highlight the frequency column of data and go to 'CHART WIZARD' pick column graph. Click on 'SERIES TAB CATEGORY (X) LABELS' to make sure that your x axis is labeled 'BIN.' Then you just complete it like normal. Help from~ http://www.pas.rochester.edu/~pavone/particle-www/teachers/analysis/HISTOGRAMS.htm

nonlinear line

anything you want to put in a bar graph

Because their is no lines on the graph to connect the point.

They allow scientist to identify trends and make predictions

The diagonal lines show how the values change over time, also known as a trend

because watermelon

the x axis

no

the amount number there is

1. A histogram is two-dimensional while a polygon has more than four dimensions.

2. A histogram may be drawn from a histogram by joining the mid points of upper horizontal sides of each rectangle. But a histogram can not be drawn from a polygon.

3. The frequency polygon of several distributions can be plotted on the same axis while more than one histogram can not be drawn on the same axis.

4. It is possible to compare the polygon of several distributions as they can be plotted on the same axis. But to compare histogram we must have a graph for each distribution.

5. Polygon an outline of data pattern is sketched more clearly than histogram.

Trend

highest value-lowest value/number of classes

they both use bars to show data and show ranges of data aswell.

a pictograph is a graph that contains pictures

nonlinear graph

A regular Excel graph can refer to various chart types, such as line graphs, pie charts, or scatter plots, each used to represent data in different ways. A bar graph specifically displays data with rectangular bars, where the length of each bar is proportional to the value it represents, making it effective for comparing quantities across categories. While bar graphs are a subset of Excel graphs, they are particularly useful for visualizing discrete data, whereas regular graphs can encompass a broader range of data visualization methods.

Definition of Pictograph * Pictograph is a way of representing statistical data using symbolic figures to match the frequencies of different kinds of data.

A bar graph compares the height of the bar to the amount represented.

Yes, a Bar graph can have a break in it... smartass...

an ideograph is a symbol of words!!!!!
