Graphing

When creating graphs, it is crucial to ensure clarity and accuracy in data presentation. Start with a descriptive title that encapsulates what the data represents. Label your x-axis and y-axis clearly with appropriate units. If you have multiple data sets, include a key or legend for easy reference. Make sure the numerical scale on the axes increases incrementally, maintaining equal intervals. If necessary, use a break symbol to indicate discontinuity in data. For additional help, refer to online resources like the NCES Graphing Tutorial and Excel graphing guides.
