  4. Line graphs • Line graphs show changes over time

  5. What is the title of this graph? What is the x axis labeled? What is the y axis labeled?

  8. Circle Graphs Create a bar graph from the following data. 86 students were polled Step 1: Find your total/whole Step 2: Find how many different groups Step 3: Find the number of items/people Step 4: Plot the graph

  9. Write down five facts about this bar graph

  10. Now Let’s Create A Circle Graph • Step 1: Find the total/whole • Step 2: Find how many different categories • Step 3: Find the percentages • Step 4: Plot the graph

  11. Types of graphs • The results of a survey of sixth grade students indicated that 34% preferred math, 23% preferred science, 18% preferred social studies, and 15% preferred language arts. All other students either did not have a favorite subject or picked a connections/elective class. • Which type of data display would be MOST appropriate for showing the data? • A. bar graph • B. circle graph • C. histogram • D. pictograph

  12. Types of Graphs- Choose circle, line, or bar graph • To compare the grades in Mrs. Belcher’s math class to the grades in Mrs. Holmes’ math class • To show the percentages of students who completed their homework • To show the high temperature for the months of January-May

  13. Assignment • 6.14 Worksheet Problems #15-20 • Finish the Worksheet and please turn in to me when you are finished. • Work on Finishing your 6.14 Study Guide
