Science Graphs • Usually line graphs • Best-fit lines • usually drawn either straight or curved • may pass through some of the points, none of the points, or all of the points
Determining Variables • What is the independent variable in this data? • What is the dependent variable?
Range and Scale • What is the range of the independent variable? • What is the range of the dependent variable? • What scale should be used for each variable on the graph?
Graphing Practice Problem • What is the independent variable in this data? • What is the dependent variable? • Create a graph of the data. • Draw a line of best fit.
