Exploring Mathematics Graphs

What type of graph uses bars to show data?

• Bar graph

• Line graph

• Scatter plot

• Pie chart

Which graph shows data points connected by lines?

• Bar graph

• Line graph

• Pie chart

• Scatter plot

What is the purpose of a pie chart?

• To show trends over time

• The purpose of a pie chart is to show the relative proportions of different categories in a dataset.

• To compare multiple datasets side by side

• To display the exact values of each category

How can you tell which graph represents the highest value?

• Look at the color of the graphs.

• Choose the graph with the widest x-axis.

• Identify the graph with the most lines.

• Compare the y-axis values at corresponding x-axis points.

What type of graph is best for showing parts of a whole?

• Bar graph

• Line graph

• Pie chart

• Histogram

In a line graph, what does the x-axis usually represent?

• The title of the graph.

• The legend of the graph.

• The dependent variable, often quantity.

• The independent variable, often time.

What does a legend on a graph help you understand?

• It indicates the source of the data.

• It shows the scale of the graph.

• It provides a summary of the graph's findings.

• It helps you understand what the different elements of the graph represent.

Which graph would you use to compare two different sets of data?

• Bar graph

• Pie chart

• Line graph

• Scatter plot

What type of graph uses dots to represent data points?

• Line graph

• Scatter plot

• Bar chart

• Pie chart

How can you identify a bar graph from a line graph?

• A bar graph displays data as a continuous flow, whereas a line graph shows discrete values.

• A bar graph has rectangular bars for data representation, while a line graph uses points connected by lines.

• A bar graph is always horizontal, while a line graph is always vertical.

• A bar graph uses points connected by lines, while a line graph has rectangular bars.
