The opposite of a discrete graph is a continuous graph. A continuous graph is where one of the variables (usually time) can continue on past what the graph says. An example would be if some one was traking the weather hour be hour. They could stop the graph at one point, but the information carries on. A discrete graph is where niether of the variables could be carried out past the graph. An example would be a shirt sale graph of how many shirts for a certain amount of money. Technically, you could have five dollars for half a shirt but realistically, you wouldn't cut a shirt in half

Is a linear graph considered to be a continuous graph?
It can be continuous or discrete.
Can a graph be both discrete and linear?
Yes, it can.
How can you tell if a graph is a continuous function or a discrete function?
The graph of a continuous function will not have any 'breaks' or 'gaps' in it. You can draw it without lifting your pencil or pen. The graph of a discrete function will just be a set of lines.
What is commonly used to show discrete data?
Bar graph.
How can you use a graph to find out if the domain is continuous or discrete?
If you can trace the graph without lifting your pencil then it is continuous.
What graph is used to discrete data?
Any kind of graph can be used for discrete data.
What is a discrete graph?
A graph composed of isolated points.
What is a graph made up of unconnected points?
It is Discrete Graph .
Is a linear graph considered to be a continuous graph?
It can be continuous or discrete.
What graph has a finite or limited number of data points is?
A discrete graph.
What is a line graph in the coordinate plane that has no breaks in it a qualitative graph a continuous graph a discrete graph a cosmograph?
Not qualitative
Does a line graph have discrete data?
yes
Can a graph be both discrete and linear?
Yes, it can.

Is a bar graph discrete or continuous?
It is both, a bar graph can be for discrete and continuous it depends on how you set out the chart. If it is for discrete data then you have to have a gap between each bar but on a continuous bar graph they are all next to each other WITHOUT any gaps. Also another way to discover if a bar graph is discrete or continuous the dicrete graph bars are labelled individually but on a continuous they are not labelled as such; there is a scale on the bottom axis. Hope this helps who ever needs it :D
What kind of graph is commonly used to show discrete data?
A pie chart :) or a bar graph.
Can a bar graph be used to show discrete data?
Yes.
