Suppose you are going to graph the data in the table below. What data should be represented on each axis and what would be the appropriate increments?

Reporting periods Sales
Jan.-Mar., 2010 $100,000
Apr.-Jun., 2010 $55,000
Jul.-Sep., 2010 $45,000
Oct.-Dec., 2010 $110,000
Jan.-Mar., 2011 $330,000
Apr.-Jun., 2011 $800,000
Jul.-Sep., 2011 $242,000
Oct.-Dec., 2011 $150,000

x-axis: time period in increments of 1 month; y-axis: sales in increments of $1,000

x-axis: sales in increments of $1,000; y-axis: time period in increments of 1 month

x-axis: time period in increme

your x-axis would be the time intervals of 1 month while your y-axis would be the sales in intervals of $1,000. personally, i would prefer to use $5,000 intervals rather than $1,000. anddont forget totitle your axis and graph.

anonymous · Answer

so how would i solve this

anonymous · Answer

increment, not interval, sorry.

anonymous · Answer

i still dont get it :/

anonymous · Answer

hmmm.
how big is your graph?

anonymous · Answer

their isnt one your suppoing their is its just a question

anonymous · Answer

oh. haha, i thought you were graphing this.

anonymous · Answer

is it like a multiple choice?

anonymous · Answer

x-axis: time period in increments of 1 month; y-axis: sales in increments of $1,000

if it is, i believe that would be your answer. ^

anonymous · Answer

yes

anonymous · Answer

x-axis: time period in increments of 1 month; y-axis: sales in increments of $1,000

anonymous · Answer

A car travels 100 meters in 5 seconds. What is the speed of the car?

speed = distance over time; 1 mile = 1609 meters

8.9 miles per hour

16 miles per hour

20 miles per hour

44.7 miles per hour what about this one

anonymous · Answer

oh geeze. i havent done this in forever.

anonymous · Answer

its okay

anonymous · Answer

i think its about 16 mph

anonymous · Answer

because if you round 1609 to 1600,then that divided by 100 would give you 16....
