Reading a time-series graph
Reading a time-series graph.
- Label axes, units and scales clearly.
- Bar charts use separated bars; time-series graphs join points in time order.
- Read the key when comparing more than one group.
Example 1
Find the overall temperature change from day 1 to day 6.
Change Final reading minus initial reading gives the overall change.
Example 2
Find the overall temperature change from day 1 to day 6.
Change Final reading minus initial reading gives the overall change.
