Can someone please help me??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what's the problem?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I need to graph a scatter plot involving the height and arm span of 6 people but I don't have the software to do it and I can't download it either, I don't know why? But I have to finish it some how the points are: 66 inches tall arm spam 65, 57 inches tall, arm span 58 inches. 61 inches tall, arm span 61.5, 75 inches tall, arm span 75. 62 inches tall, arm span 61.75, 63 inches tall, arm span 64. I also have to determine the line of best fit. So if you could tell me which two points you used to draw the line of best fit, you would be a real life saver!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I've tried downloading four different graphing software's including excel but none of them work

OpenStudy (nottim):

HAve you tried openoffice?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Openoffice wont even open on my computer??? This sucks!! My computer is crap!! :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Please!! I really need help with this.

OpenStudy (nottim):

have you tried ubuntu? That has open office; open office runs on that. How can openoffice not even open? try hand-drawing.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk

OpenStudy (nottim):

Height is the x-axis, arm span is the y axis.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it baffles me

OpenStudy (nottim):

??? I just gave yo udirections. Now you figure out the scale, and then all the hard work is done just plot points.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I was talking about my computer..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I know how to graph it

OpenStudy (nottim):

Ok. What's your OS?

OpenStudy (nottim):

Try uninstalling, re-installing and then rebooting. A classic method.

OpenStudy (nottim):

Get the newest version. OR, on, do what I said... There is a scatter plot option for the graphs...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But it has to be online because I go to school online but unfortunately but scanner is broken

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I've tried it three times but it wont work???

OpenStudy (nottim):

Man. You racking up the Technology-Hates-You points.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what?

OpenStudy (nottim):

Google Docs? Try that? They got any graphing stuff?

OpenStudy (nottim):

Or try using Excel again. And I still think Openoffice should work on Vista and newer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let me check..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have windows xp

OpenStudy (anonymous):

an old dell computer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Its never been this bad before??

OpenStudy (nottim):

Bugger...your computer powerful enough to run another OS?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my computer is lagging just texting to you?

OpenStudy (nottim):

Try ubuntu. IT has openoffice pre-installed. It won't overwrite your XP too.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay hold on one sec in case it doesn't work...

OpenStudy (nottim):

You have to install ubuntu onto a CD or memory stick though.

OpenStudy (nottim):

I still think excel works fine.

OpenStudy (nottim):

http://www.google.com/google-d-s/spreadsheets/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is there and option to make a scatter plot?

OpenStudy (nottim):

i dunno.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It works but once I get on the page, it starts to lag and then it just stops! its lagging right now!! just trying to talk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I really appreciate your help, thank you for trying to help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

could you possibly get a plain scatter plot graph and post it here and maybe I could copy and paste it to paint and just fill it in like that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Maybe??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I cant access it, it says: You will receive an email if and when the owner of this item approves your request???

OpenStudy (nottim):

gimme moment, si vous plait.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay..

OpenStudy (nottim):

wat you email??

OpenStudy (nottim):

it good now. try again.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

laurenrigg@ymail.com

OpenStudy (nottim):

good it go, mon ami.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a big map showed up?

OpenStudy (nottim):

Scatter plot. IF you play around with Google Docs there, you will get your scatter plot. Use it like excel.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay hold on one sec

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It wont let me click on anything?? uhhh this is so frustrating! Im sorry to be putting you through all this trouble.

OpenStudy (nottim):

ARe you using Mozilla Firefox or internet explorer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

google chrome

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it should work??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't understand why its not working

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my computer has never done this before

OpenStudy (nottim):

What computer doing?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Whenever I try to go on google docs it just lags and then it doesn't let me click on anything

OpenStudy (nottim):

REstart computer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and then it just stops working all together, I cant move around the page or exit out I have to Alt+tab out and then close it that way.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but I can go on yahoo or youtube just fine??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

even openstudy lags a little??

OpenStudy (nottim):

Openstudy lags all the time. Try restarting. Excel should work fine. Why doesnt openoffice work? If all else fails, use ubuntu.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh okay so its not just my computer.. lol i'm going to try to restart but if you could wait until I get back on just in case it doesn't work. If this doesn't fix it I don't know what else to do??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, I restarted and tried google docs again but its still not working??? now the page isn't even opening :( I don't understand why this is happening? I asked my teacher earlier but all she said was to use paint but I can't really draw an entire scatter plot on paint, I at least need a base or something??
