Sample Graphing
Assign # Sample Graphing 45 pts.
• X – Y Coordinates• Shows a change of 2 or more
variables• X – Horizontal axis
____________________ Independent variable – variable
manipulated or changed by scientist.
(Ex. – time)
Sample Graphing
• Y – Vertical axis II
• Dependent variable - “Depends” on independent variable
The measured variable (ex. - temperature)
Sample Graphing Format
• 1) Graphs should cover the whole page
• 2) Indent 3-4 lines from sides to bottom
• 3) Determine the range of your X and Y axis from table(ex. – x = 0-10, y = 0-80)
• 4) Don’t number every square on Y axis. Do every 2, 5, 10, etc.
