    This document discusses different types of graphs used to represent data: 1) Broken line graphs connect data points with line segments to show trends over time or compare multiple data sets. 2) Bar graphs use rectangular bars to plot discrete data, with bar length proportional to values. 3) Histograms are similar to bar graphs but for continuous data, with touching bars representing value ranges. 4) Circle graphs divide a whole circle into sectors to show parts of data.

    Representing Data using Graphs Name:

    A broken line graph graph shows information by plotting values and joining them
    with line segments.

    The title of a graph and the labeling of the horizontal and vertical axes tell you
    about the data shown.

    The independent variable goes on the horizontal axis, and the dependent variable
    goes on the vertical axis.

    Broken line graphs are useful for showing a trend over time. They can also be used
    to compare sets of data, using multiple lines on the same graph.

    A bar graph is another way to visually represent data.

    A bar graph is used to plot discrete data using rectangular bars, the lengths of which are
    proportional to the values represented.

    The bars on a bar graph can be either vertical or horizontal, and have spaces between them.
    Draw a bar graph and a broken line graph for the rock concert tickets sold per day. Which is a
    better represenation?

    Bar Graph
    A histogram is like a bar graph except that it is used to represent
    continuous data so that the bars are touching. The width of the bar
    represents a range of numbers.
    A circle graph is used to display how a whole is divided.
    The sectors of the circle represent parts of the data.
