this is dealing with line plots: if you have a box that has the following in it: number of clay models made by art club members in may
8 6 6 6 2
5 8 8 5 5
4 6 6 3 7
models in may
then you have a line graph as such:
<-1--2--3--4--5--6--7--8-> how would you solve this? it just says use this data to complete the line plot.
umm...wouldnt u do somethin like this:
Number of Clay Models Made by Art Club Members
x
x
x x x
x x x
x x x x x x x
<--1--2--3--4--5--6--7--8-->
To complete the line plot using the given data, you need to count the frequency or number of times each value appears.
Here's the step-by-step process:
1. Draw a horizontal line with equal intervals representing the number range from 1 to 8, as shown:
<--1--2--3--4--5--6--7--8-->
2. Read through the data given:
- There are 8 clay models made by art club members in May.
- There are 6 clay models made by art club members in May.
- There are 6 clay models made by art club members in May.
- There are 6 clay models made by art club members in May.
- There are 2 clay models made by the art club members in May.
- There are 5 clay models made by art club members in May.
- There are 8 clay models made by art club members in May.
- There are 8 clay models made by art club members in May.
- There are 5 clay models made by art club members in May.
- There are 5 clay models made by art club members in May.
- There are 4 clay models made by art club members in May.
- There are 6 clay models made by art club members in May.
- There are 6 clay models made by art club members in May.
- There are 3 clay models made by art club members in May.
- There are 7 clay models made by art club members in May.
3. Count the frequency or number of times each value (from 1 to 8) appears in the data.
- The number 1 appears once.
- The number 2 appears once.
- The number 3 appears once.
- The number 4 appears once.
- The number 5 appears three times.
- The number 6 appears five times.
- The number 7 appears once.
- The number 8 appears three times.
4. Represent the frequency by marking an "x" above each number on the line plot to visualize the data.
The completed line plot should look like this:
Number of Clay Models Made by Art Club Members
x
x
x x x
x x x
x x x x x x x
<--1--2--3--4--5--6--7--8-->
Now you have completed the line plot using the given data.
