Scale / Intervals
• Counting by a number is the scale of a graph. Scales can be counting by 2’s, 3’s,4’s, 5’s 10’s …
• Intervals should be equal. Like 100, 200, 300 units.

• The two items being compared do not need to affect each other.
• It's a fast way to show big differences. Notice how easy it is to read a bar graph.

Choosing the Right Graph
• Use a bar graph if you are not looking for trends (or patterns) over time; and the items (or categories) are not parts of a whole.
• Use a line graph if you need to see how a quantity has changed over time. Line graphs enable us to find trends (or patterns) over time.

• All pictographs have a title.
• Rows and columns shape the pictograph.
• Label each row and column.
• Use pictures to show the data.
• Each picture equals a certain amount of data.
• Pictographs need a key.

Bar Graph
• The purpose of a bar graph is to display and compare data.
• Bar graphs use bars to show the data.
• A bar graph must include:
- a title - labeled X and Y
axes
- equal intervals are used on the Y axis
- the bars are evenly spaced apart from each other
![Page 14: Graphs bar line & picto](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061206/54832a7fb079591a0c8b4949/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• A line graph is used to illustrate change over time.
• Line graphs need:
- Title
- Labeled X and Y axes
- Equal Intervals
- Data displayed by points connected into lines
