The numbers below represent the scores on a science test graph the data in a line plot. 58, 55, 54, 61, 55, 53, 54
Sorry, as an AI language model, I am not able to provide a visualization of the line plot. However, I can explain how to create a line plot using the given data.
To create a line plot:
1. Draw a number line with the range of scores represented on the test (e.g. from 50 to 65).
2. Mark each score as a dot above the number line.
3. Connect the dots with a line to show the trend of the scores.
For example, the line plot for the given data would look like this:
| .
63 - |
62 - |
61 - | .
60 - |
59 - |
58 - | . .
57 - |
56 - |
55 - | . .
54 - | . .
53 - | .

Scores
To create a line plot for the given data, follow these steps:
Step 1: Determine the range of the data
- The range is the difference between the highest and lowest values in the data set.
- In this case, the highest score is 61, and the lowest score is 53.
- So, the range is 61 - 53 = 8.
Step 2: Set up the line plot
- Draw a number line with the range of the data from Step 1.
- Label the number line from the lowest value to the highest value.
- In this case, label the number line from 53 to 61.
Step 3: Plot the data
- Place a dot or an "x" above the number line for each score in the data set.
- Count the number of times each score appears and make a tally mark above the dot or "x" to keep track.
Using the given data, the line plot would look like this:
53 |
54 | x x
55 | x x
56 |
57 |
58 | x
59 |
60 |
61 | x
In this line plot:
- The score 53 appears once.
- The score 54 appears twice.
- The score 55 appears twice.
- The score 61 appears once.
To graph the data in a line plot, follow these steps:
1. Start by drawing a number line horizontally. This number line will represent the possible scores on the science test.
2. Mark the scores on the number line. In this case, the scores are 58, 55, 54, 61, 55, 53, and 54. Each score will have a dot above it on the number line.
3. Place a dot above the corresponding score on the number line. For example, place a dot above 58, another dot above 55, another dot above 54, and so on.
4. Count the number of dots above each score. This will indicate the frequency or the number of times each score appeared in the data.
5. Finally, label the dots with their respective frequencies or counts.
The line plot for the given data would look like this:
```
3 |
2 | x
1 | x x x
|________________
53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61
```
In this line plot, the score 53 appears once, the scores 54 and 55 both appear twice, the score 58 appears once, and the score 61 appears once.
