From 0 to 6 at intervals of 3

From 0 to 8 at intervals of 4

From 0 to 3 at intervals of 1

From 0 to 5 at intervals of 1

Mercury · Answer

thoughts about this one?

notice how your x-values are: 1, 2, 3, and 4. which intervals do you think let the data take up space, without getting cut off or shrunk?

as an example, 0 to 8 at intervals of 4 would fit all the data, but because the first interval (0-4) would fit all the data, that would leave half of the graph empty for no reason.

any other choices that would fit better?
