Answer 10

i did that put the data in, now it says data range? what is that

Answer 11

easier way, get graph paper (or draw a grid on your paper)
>draw axes and LABEL THEM: by convention vertical axis is y and horizontal is x

plot points: (x,y)

>find value of x on horizontal axis draw an imaginary line upwards
>find value of y on vertical axis draw imaginary line horizontally so it intersects with the previous drawn line.

draw a point on the intersection
do this for every point

Answer 12

in excel you can just highlight all your date and go to "chart" then choose your format for it (i.e. line, scatter, etc)

Answer 13

last time i drew it and i got a zero. now im trying to do it in excel

Answer 14

if your data is for axis X in column A and Y data in column B you go to A1 and click with left click and hold that left click and drag the selection area to whole data set (col. A and B) and then proceed to drawing the graph... furthermore that data in col A and B is your data range!!! so if you go trough wizard you need to click on the small icon next to the empty field and then select from table data for X and Y by highlighting the data like i said with left click holding and releasing when all data is selected...
