Graphs
Graphs often collect a set of data in a group of people. There are many kinds of graphs: pie charts (circle charts), bar graphs, line graphs, data tables, pictographs, flow charts, histograms, etc.

How are a bar graph and a histogram different?
a bar graph the bars are seperated a histogram the bars are not seperated
What type of graph is a combination of a bar and line graph?
It is called, not surprisingly, a combination graph.
Everyone including books and people answering on this website get this wrong. It does matter and the rule is simple. If your horizontal access is something where it is not possible to rank in any special order- for example favourite crisp flavours or different ways of getting to work - then the bars are separate. I think spacing of a third or half the bar width looks neatest.
If you have a horizontal axis of some grouped data, like length of leaves, then you have a histogram and the bars touch. Strictly a histogram has a vertical axis of density to accommodate different width groupings. In many cases all the widths are identical and you have a simple frequency up the vertical axis.
There does not seem any unaminity of the correct name for this animal. On the one hand I'd use "histogram" so it's clear the bars touch but then some purists object because the vertical axis isn't density. On balance I'd still call it a histogram.
Can you interpret a double bar graph?
The main benefit of a double bar graph is that you can compare two different groups when measured against the same thing. The bars come in pairs: if the bars on one side of the pair are consistently higher or lower than the bars on the other side, that means there is a definable trend you can use to differentiate between the two groups.
A slope in a basic straight line graph?
Slope of a straight line on a Cartesian coordinated graph is 'rise over run' = y2-y1/x2-x1 = change in 'y'/change in 'x'
Graph
1. A diagram that exhibits a relationship, often functional, between two sets of numbers as a set of points having coordinates determined by the relationship. Also called plot.
2. A pictorial device, such as a pie chart or bar graph, used to illustrate quantitative relationships. Also called chart.
Which data is the best analyzed and communicated using histogram?
Histograms are like bar graphs but instead of being spaced, each bar is attached to the next. Histograms are ideal when you're trying to compare large amounts if data.
not really now if the bars were touching it would be a histogram which compares ranges
What is the difference between the bar graph and chart?
A bar graph is a type of chart in which data (usually absolute quantities) is shown as bars either vertically or horizontally. Each bar can further be split up into sections.
Another chart type is the pie chart in which data (most often parts of a whole, percentages, etc.) is shown as wedges of a circular "pie".
Another chart type is a scatter plot where data is plotted as discrete points perhaps connected with a trend line.
How do you calculate the frequency density in a histogram?
Frequency density= Frequency/Class width
So shut ur mouth whoever is reading this!
Which part of the line graph tells the viewer what the height of the line shows?
The label on the y-axis or vertical axis.
What is an advantage of using a pie chart to represent data?
The pie chart communicates the figures much clearer than just a set of numbers. Pie charts visually represent the figures as if they were pieces in a pie; the larger the figure the larger the piece. These charts are often effective when presenting a budget.
Pie charts are visually appealing and look clean and professional. They are also eye-catching.
How can you tell when an interval of a histogram has a frequency of zero?
When sum of all counts is equal to the population size.
What is a scale of a bar graph?
The scale varies on depending on the graph; there is no standard scale. It is whatever you want it to be.
Is a scatter plot better than a line graph?
It is in the sense that it contains all of the basic data including information as to whether or not a line graph is appropriate - particularly whether that is the case across the whole of the domain. If that is the case, then a line graph is better because is reduces the amount of clutter.
Where can you find a pie chart showing percentage of main goods in Oklahoma?
you can find Oklahoma's main goods in google image's. First type in "pie chart illustrating Oklahoma main goods"
