lets say that bill and bob are selling cookie bags and they want to know how much cookie bags they sold each hour. they make a graph that looks like this. on the xaxis they will have time ( hours ) and on the yaxis she will have number of cookie bags sold.i would connect the dots because im looking at a change over time so i will be able to tell by the lines if they increased.

In making a graph, first you would need a topic.
The main topic would be your title. Next you would need your independent variable and dependent variable. The dependent would be your y-axis, and the independent variable would be your x-axis. Along the x and y-axis would be the scale. When using a coordinate graph, the graph shows changes over time with line segments.

I would first make a graph then i would label it. Put a tittle on the top. The dependent on the x- axis and the indepent on the y- axis. Then I would make a scale for both of the x- axis and y- axis. Then I would mark the points that the table or proplem has given you.

Say that Jane ans Sue are selling cookies. They want to know how many cookies they selled per hour. So they would put the time variable on the x-axis and the number of cookies on the y-axis. Yes, you would connect the points with line segments because there are different times like 1:22 or 1:53 between 1:00 and 2:00 in the time intervals.

first i would draw the graph. then i would make a scale. after i would place the independant variable on the the y axis and the dependant variable on the x axis i would connect the dots with a line to show the steady or not inclcine

Imagine if Caroline and Kelly are selling gummy worms. They are planning to sell the gummy worms at 10 am to 10 pm. For the better part of the day the girls sold 67 bags. At the end of the day they quit. So the time they spent selling is on the x axis and the gummy worms are on the y axis. If they sold 10 at 2 pm they the cordinate pair would be (2,10).

i would start off drawing the graph itself, because you can't make a graph points without a graph to point them on. then, you would label your X and Y axes.the X axis is the independent variable and the Y is the dependent variable. make sure you post a scale or label each point in the graph so we know the value of each gap. then you'd have to determine which variable is which. after you've done that then you start to graph your points. make sure you're graphing them accuretly and it looks reasonable. remember that change accurs over time, so draw lines inbetween your dots! unless your changes are instant, then you wouldn't have to. once you've finished, check it. then you throw a huge party because you've just made an epic graph.

Say that yo and moe were selling koo-laid. the two variable is time by hours and kool-aid cups sold. I would make a graph then put a title on it. I would first figure out which variable is my independent variable and the dependent variable. So time is the independent variable and cups sold is the dependant. i would connect the line segments because it tells you how steep the line is.

The steps I would take to make a graph is to first pick a appropriate scale for the x and y axis. After you have done that, you would , for example put time on the y axis and total candy sold on the x axis. You would point your info on the graph. I would connect the segments because it is showing chanege over time.

Lets say Jimmy and Joey are selling popcorn for boy scouts. If they wanted to make a graph about their progress you would have to draw 2 lines horizontil and vertical. The x axis on the bottom would be labeled time. The y axis on the left would be labeled number of popcorn sold. Then they would use a scale and add the dots where the coordinate say it is. Then they would connect the dots with lines.

If you were trying to make a graph to show the relationship between two variables you would. First you would put the independent variavable that variable doesn’t depend on anything but things depend in it and it goes on the x axis. You would put the dependent variable( the variable that depends on somrthing) on the y axis. You would finish the graph and you connect the lines to see the relationship.

Unknown said...

Okay, first take a coordinate graph and choose your title. Your title will be at the top of the graph. Next you will take your independent Variable (which is the one that you cannot change) and put it on the x axis. Your dependent is the one that is being changed so that one will be on your y axis. Then I would connect the dots once you filled in the data from your table so I can tell the increase, or decrease over time!

The steps I would take to make a graph are one, to identify the two variables. Number two, is to tell which variable is the independent and which the dependent is. (The independent is the one that doesn’t depend on anything, and the dependent depends on something). Then, put the independen6t on the x axis (horizontal) and the dependent on the y axis (vertical). After that, create a scale for the x and y axis. Then, plot the points on the graph. I would connect the plots with line segments because it shows how much they sold or grew, for example, in-between the two segments.

if you wanted to make a graph you would first need a topic(title).next you woulld need your independent variable(usually time)on the X-axis. on the Y-axis, you put the dependent variable(usually the number of something that changes due to time). i would connect the points on a graph so that i could easly tell the difference between the two points.

When you mak a graph you first need to right down a title.Then you would draw your y axis and your x axis.Next you label them (make sure you put your independent on your x axis and your dependent on the y axis.)(time is always the indepedent variable because it doesn't depend on anything). Then you would make a scale,then put the coordinates on the graph x axis is always first,(cross the lobby then go up the elavator). Draw line segments if you want to see the progress on the graph.

When creating a graph you must first draw the X & Y axis.These two things are imprtant since the X axis is the independent variable & the Y axis is the dependent variable. Then label your two axisis(Remember: time always is the independent variable all the time). Then create a scale for the X & Y axisis. Next, put all the ordered pairs onto your graph from your data. Last, Title your graph. And that’s how you create a graph.

First you would draw the graph and then pick a scale to put on the x-axis and the y-axis. Then you would put all of the dots(the imformation) on all of the right places.Then you would title the x-axis,the y axis, and you would tiitle the whole graph. And your pretty much done with the graph. You would put the independent variable on the x-axis and the dependent variable on the y-axis

The first step is, divide the graph in sections like 1’s, 5’s, 10’s, etc. Then put the indenpent variable on the x axis, then put the dependent variable on the y axis. Then start putting the variables on the lines. After that then connect the lines to see how steep it is and how horizontal it is, and how much It fluctuates. Then always double check your work to make sure that you have it right. For instance a title, a scale, a t and an indepent variable and a dependent variable. Time is an independent variable because it dosent depend on anything.

Unknown said...

The first things you need to do when creating a graph is find the topic. That will be your title. You will write the title above your graph. Then draw the graph. Then you need to figure out your independent variable and your dependent variable. The in dependent variable will always be on the x-axis and the dependent variable will always be on the y-axis. Label the y and x-axis with your dependent and independent variable. If you have time as one of the variables it will go on the independent variable because time depends on nothing. Then create the scale. This will be on the x and y-axis. It could be by twos, by fives, by halves, by anything that works with your data. Then plot you data onto the graph. Then connect the points together and you have a graph.

First you need to make the graph, label the X and Y axis, and title the graph. Then you label the independent and dependent variable. The independent variable is something that does not depend on anything (time). The dependent variable is something that depends on the independent variable (Money, Jumping Jacks...etc) Next find what scale you want (1, 2, 3, 4, 5...etc) Then you add the dots on the graph. Last (if necessary) connect the dot with line segments to show the changes over time.

The first step would be to pick the certain type of graph to plot your data. The second step would be label your x (dependent variable) and y (independant) axis so you know what to put your data down on the graph. Say we where selling lemonaid and wanted to graph the sales. We would put the time (hours) on the X axis and the amount of lemonaid (# of cups) sold on the Y axis. You would connect the lines on the graph to shows the relationship of sales over time.

First you decide which graph is appropriate to use.Then you make sure you understand your x and y axis. The independent varible or the varible that does not depend on anything goes on the x axis.The dependant varible goes on the y axis which depends on something elese to make it continue.Then you decide your scale which depends on your data a scale is what number fits best in your grap or table.Then you graph your data, you can connect if that helps you.Remember time always goes on the x axis since time will always keep going. :)

First I would need to identify each variable. Once I found out which variable was the independent and dependent variable, then I would put them on their corresponding axis. The independent variable would go on the x axis and the dependent variable would go on the y axis. The y axis is the vertical line and the x axis is the horizontal line. Next I would select a scale for each of my axis. The scale would have to make sense. If the numbers that are listed for the y axis are 1, 5, 15, 20 then my scale wouldn't be by 20's it would be by 5's. Lastly I would plot the data points for each coordinate pair. I would connect the points with line segments to show the value between the dots.

in making a coordinate graph you would need a topic. when your topic is found then you would have to find your independent and dependent variable. independent goes on the x axis which is the horizantal line. dependent goes on the y axis which is the vertical line. use a coordinate pair to pinpoint an ecxact mark on the graph. draw lines in between the dots to show value in between the dots. when you are done making the graph you can make a table to make it easier to see the information.

Yes this is possible because the time depends on temperature. Time depends on temperature because the hotter the water the faster the thing dissolves.

1. title page, and graph.
2. make a scale for the graph.
3. label X AND Y axes.
4. put temperature on the X and put time on the Y.
5. in this case time is dependent and temperature id independent.
6. put the information on the graph.
7. then connect the points with line segments because there is value between them
8. then show mrs. ryon how good you did(:

McDonald said...

1. identify 2 variables
2. select an axis to represent each variable( and write it on the axis)
3. create a scale for your x and y axis
4. plot your data points
5. Make up a title for your graph
6. lable your x and y axis the variables(time, distance etc.)
7. your finished :)
