February 19, 2013
Date: 2/19
Bar Graph: _________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________________
*Used for _______________ or ________________ data.
STEPS:
1. Draw and label the x and y axes. The x­axis is the frequency, where
the y­axis represents the categories.
2. Draw the bars corresponding to the frequencies. The bars should not
touch.

Time Series Graph: __________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________
STEPS:
1. Draw and label the x and y axes
2. Label the x­axis for the time and the y­axis for the frequency
3. Plot each point according to the table
4. Draw line segments connecting adjacent points. Do not try to fit a
smooth curve through the data points.
*A Compound Time Series Graph compares two or more data sets on
the same graph.

The Pie Chart: _______________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________________
STEPS:
1. Since there are 360° in a circle, the frequency of each class must be
converted to represent a proportional part of the circle. To convert:
Degrees =
2. Each frequency must also be converted to a percentage(%).
%=
3. Using a protract and compass, draw the graph using the
appropriate degree measures found in Step 1. Label each section with
the name and percentages.
