Data that shows change over time is best displayed in a line graph. A line graph displays a set of data using line segments.
Additional Example 1: Making a Line Graph Use the data in the table to make a line graph.
Caution! Because time passes whether or not the population changes, time is independent of population. Always put the independent quantity on the horizontal axis.
Additional Example 1 Continued Step 1: Place year on the horizontal axis and population on the vertical axis. Label the axes. Step 2: Determine an appropriate scale and interval for each axis. Population of New Hampshire Step 3: Mark a point for each data value. Connect the points with straight lines. 6,000 5,000 4,000 Population 3,000 2,000 Step 4: Title the graph. 1,000 0 1650 1670 1690 1700 Year
Check It Out: Example 1 Use the data in the table to make a line graph.
Check It Out: Example 1 Continued Step 1: Place year on the horizontal axis and number of students on the vertical axis. Label the axes. Step 2: Determine an appropriate scale and interval for each axis. School District Enrollment 6,000 Step 3: Mark a point for each data value. Connect the points with straight lines. 5,000 4,000 Number of Students 3,000 2,000 1,000 Step 4: Title the graph. 0 1996 1998 2000 2002 Year
Additional Example 2: Reading a Line Graph Use the line graph to answer each question. A. In which year did CDs cost the most? 2002 B. About how much did CDs cost in 2000? $15 C. Did CD prices increase or decrease from 1999 through 2002? Increase
Check It Out: Example 2 Use the line graph to answer each question. A. In which year did CDs cost the least? 1999 B. About how much did CDs cost in 1999? $13 C. Did CD prices increase or decrease from 2001 to 2002? Increase
Line graphs that display two sets of data are called double-line graphs.
Helpful Hint Use different colors of lines to connect the stock values so you will easily be able to tell the data apart. Additional Example 3: Making a Double-Line Graph Use the data in the table to make a double-line graph.
Corp. A Corp. B $40 $30 $20 $10 $0 1985 1990 1995 2000 Additional Example 3 Continued Step 1: Determine an appropriate scale and interval. Step 2: Mark a point for each Corporation A value and connect the points. Step 3: Mark a point for each Corporation B value and connect the points. Stock Prices Price of Stock Step 4: Title the graph and label both axes. Include a key. Year
