How can you use a graph to represent relationships between quantities without using numbers?

A graph can represent relationships between quantities without using numbers by employing visual elements such as shapes, colors, or sizes. For instance, different shapes can symbolize various categories, while the proximity of these shapes can indicate the strength of their relationships. Additionally, the use of arrows can illustrate direction or flow, while varying colors can represent different attributes or states. This way, viewers can interpret the relationships qualitatively based on visual cues rather than numerical data.

Why did the Framers of the U. S. select the number nine as a ratifing number?

-- The Constitution was to be ratified by 2/3 of the states. -- There were 13 states at that time. 2/3 of those would have been 82/3 states ratifying. -- Since 8 is not enough, and 2/3 of a state can't ratify, it needed at least 9 .
