What do misleading graphs contain?
They usually contain a "break" in the graph, which would be on the left side of the graph.
What does misleading mean in math term?
In mathematical terms, "misleading" refers to information or representations that can create confusion or lead to incorrect conclusions. This often occurs when data is presented in a way that distorts the true relationship or significance of the information, such as through improper scaling of graphs or selective data presentation. Misleading representations can lead to misunderstandings or misinterpretations of the underlying mathematical concepts or results.
Why is it important to carefully evaluate graphs?
Visual presentation is a very efficient way of conveying information - whether the information is correct or incorrect - including deliberately misleading. Once accepted, all information is difficult to amend. It is important, therefore, that the correct messages are taken in from graphs.

How graphs can be misleading?
Graphs can be misleading by having a break in them, not starting at zero, or go up by a certain nuber and then another number completely (ex:up by 1's and then up by 3's).

How could it be potentially misleading to use bars with different widths in a bar graph?
It could imply that a thicker bar means that particular value was greater, when in fact only the height is important in bar graphs.
Do graphs represent equations?
Bar graphs and line graphs do not. Straight line, parabolic, and hyperbolic graphs are graphs of an equation.
How are bar graphs and line graphs and circle graphs different?
circle graphs add up to 100% , bar and line graphs don't
