TYPES OF GRAPHS • Scatter plot: we use this 95% of the time (best fit line) • Line graph: shows changes over time or space • Bar graph: compares different variables • Pie graph: useful with percentages
Speed of A Car TIME (s) DISTANCE (m)

Interpolate vs. Extrapolate • Interpolate: being able to “construct” data points from inside a known data set • Extrapolate: being able to “construct” data points from outside a known data set (predict)
Interpolate: Distance at time 2.5 s = Extrapolate: Time at Distance 15 m = 5m 9 s X s 6 s = 15 m 10m X s = 0.6 15 m
Create the data table! • For the next slides you will create a data table representing the given graph • Be sure to label IV and DV!
