4. What graphs would clearly represent the trends in your data?
Your Student Guide includes information on which graphs to construct. Each graph should have the
following items:
a. An appropriate title
b. Appropriate labels for each axis
I
An appropriate scale for each axis
d. The correct units for the data
C.
Complete a rough sketch of each graph.
