not asking you to do it but help me

Answer 56

"Use an appropriate scale, to neatly and clearly draw separate scatter graphs showing the rise and fall of your three shares."

OK, you know what the basics of a scater graph/scater plot are? Like this info?
http://www.mathsisfun.com/data/scatter-xy-plots.html

Answer 57

ye

Answer 58

i just don't know how to set it out

Answer 59

OK. So the problem is the x and y stuff?

Answer 60

ye

Answer 61

Well, the rise and fall will be over time since it has days.

Answer 62

so if you just draw something and i can do the rest

Answer 63

with the headings of x and y if possible

Answer 64

If you look at the page I linked, it has a sea level over years. That is basically how you do values over time. Any question where you have time involved the time is almost always the abscissa (horozontal) axis.

Answer 65

From the standpoint of a function, you are inputting time and ouputting a value.

Answer 66

So for the rise and falls i put them together if you know what i mean

Answer 67

a table like this and draw the scatter graph from it or am i wrong

Answer 68

The rise and or fall is just if it is higher or lower. What I see an an issue is that you have both high and low. A lot of times you might use a box to show the high and the low. Other times you use two dots. Also, I am not sure how many plots they want and what the separation will be.

Answer 69

ikr its so confusing this assignment

Answer 70

Looking at the working... unless you get the teacher to clarify it, I would go with one graph per share.

Answer 71

They may just not want the different colors on the graph it would take to represent it otherwise.

Answer 72

wait let me show you this graph

Answer 73

Make into a scatter graph

Answer 74

instead of a line graph

Answer 75

Only difference between that and scatter is that you do not connect the dots...

Answer 76

ye so do you think that i should draw that type of graph?

Answer 77

so the rise(high) and fall(low) will be different

Answer 78

So use two different colours for the scatter graph

Answer 79

and then use a key that red is rise and blue is fall

something like that

Answer 80

Genrally, no... You would do it for the value. I can only see two ways to break it into multiple graphs. By high and low prices with all three companies on one graph. By companies with high and low prices on one graph.

Answer 81

So the different colors would either be for different companies or for high and low.

Answer 82

hmmmm

Answer 83

im gonna try to draw on graph and then show you how it looks

Answer 84
