Capture relationships between data sets by graphing linear equations in Microsoft Excel 2007. Linear equations allow you to predict values within your data set and view the overall trend. Use ...
Data is rarely so uniform and predictable that plotting data points creates a perfectly linear arrangement. Scatter charts might have wildly varying plots that create a seemingly random correlation ...
Plot points with coordinates where \(x\) and \(y\) are equal. Three points are sufficient, but more can be plotted. Draw a line through the plotted points. If \(x\) is positive, \(y\) is negative. If ...
In order to graph linear equations by finding intercepts, we must remember what an x and y intercept are. So remember that in an x-intercept it’s the y that equals zero, and for the y-intercept it’s ...
Graphs are pictorial representations of numbers. Therefore, at the least, we should expect that the representation of the numbers be proportional to the numbers themselves. Unfortunately, this is not ...
Back when I first started charting the spread of coronavirus I decided not to use a logarithmic scale. I figured that log scales were fine for communicating with other professionals, but most laymen ...
