Graphs+&+Data+Analysis

UNIT: Graphs and Data Analysis I. **Learning Objective**: The student will: Interpret and draw pictographs. Interpret single and double bar graphs. Interpret single and double line graphs. Draw a bar or line graph for a given set of data. Decide whether it would be more appropriate to draw a bar graph or a line graph to display a set of data To solve problems involving too much or not enough information Recognize how bar graphs and line graphs can be misleading Find the mean, median, mode, and range of a set of data. Decide whether a given measure of central tendency is appropriate for a set of data. Calculate statistical measures for data in a frequency table.
