Practice #12 Answers
Given the table of information construct a bar graph which displays the same information.
| Yearly Quarter |
Expenses (in dollars) |
|---|---|
| first | 30,000 |
| second | 55,000 |
| third | 40,000 |
| fourth | 50,000 |
There is more than one way to construct this graph. You could have decided to start the frequency scale at zero. However, given that the range of values goes from 30,000 to 55,000, you do not need to start at zero. A value of 20,000 would be a better starting point since it is easier to view the differences between bar heights. Below are two possibilities, depending on the scale.
| For the graph below, the scale is 0-60 thousand dollars with an interval of 10. | For the graph below, the scale is 20-60 thousand dollars with an interval of 5. |
