the different types of graph

1. Types of graph

2. Consider the following graphs and answer the questions that follow:

3. Questions: a. What information can we get from each of the above graphs? Discuss each graph. b. Do they present the same information? c. Describe each of the graphs. What do you think are some uses of each of the charts or graphs?

4. Analyze each data and decide on what type of graph to use in representing each set of data. Then draw the graph. Explain why you are using such graph/chart in presenting your data. 1. 2015-2016 Graduating Elementary Pupils

5. Miss Villa asked her class to record the weather temperature at 6:00 a.m., and every 3 hours thereafter until 9:00 p.m. Very keenly, one of the students recorded the following data: 6:00 a.m. – 28.8oC 9:00 a.m. – 29.4oC 12:00 nn . - 32.6oC 3:00 p.m. – 31.0oC 6:00 p.m. – 30.0oC 9:00 p.m. – 29.2oC Construct a line graph and answer the following questions: a. What is the maximum temperature recorded for the day? b. At what time intervals was the temperature increasing? Decreasing? c. Approximately, what was the temperature reading at 7:00 a.m.?

6. A bar graph is used to show relative sizes of data. Bars drawn proportional to the data may be horizontal or vertical. Bar graphs are used to show the comparison of nominal data, such as nationality, sex, religion, etc., and other numerical data – discrete or continuous, such population and other frequency information.

7. A line graph shows the relationship between two or more sets of continuous data. For instance, it may show the relationship between a population and time, or liquid capacity and distance.

8. A pie chart is best used to compare parts to a whole. The size of each sector of the circle is proportional to the size of the category that it represents. A histogram is a graphical representation showing a visual impression of the distribution of data. A histogram consists of tabular frequencies, shown as adjacent rectangles, erected over intervals. The height of a rectangle is also equal to the
