Not at all. Whatever fits. Designers of microwave communication links routinely work

with graphs where each mark on the horizontal axis may be 1, 2, or 10 miles, and

each mark on the vertical axis may be 20, 50, or 100 feet.

The one thing to keep in mind when the two axes have different scales is that

angles on the graph won't have their true shape.

How can you use a position-time graph for two in-line skaters to determine if and when one in-line skater will pass the other one?

Draw the two graphs on the same set of axes. One inline skater will pass the other if the lines representing each of their motions intersect. The position coordinate of the point where the lines intersect is the position where the passing occurs.


What type of graph would you use to display various types of data?

. . . a Line graph.Line graphs are used to track changes over short and long periods of time. When smaller changes exist, line graphs are better to use than bar graphs. Line graphs can also be used to compare changes over the same period of time for more than one group.. . . a Pie Chart.Pie charts are best to use when you are trying to compare parts of a whole. They do not show changes over time.. . . a Bar Graph.Bar graphs are used to compare things between different groups or to track changes over time. However, when trying to measure change over time, bar graphs are best when the changes are larger.. . . an Area Graph.Area graphs are very similar to line graphs. They can be used to track changes over time for one or more groups. Area graphs are good to use when you are tracking the changes in two or more related groups that make up one whole category (for example public and private groups).. . . an X-Y Plot.X-Y plots are used to determine relationships between the two different things. The x-axis is used to measure one event (or variable) and the y-axis is used to measure the other. If both variables increase at the same time, they have a positive relationship. If one variable decreases while the other increases, they have a negative relationship. Sometimes the variables don't follow any pattern and have no relationship.:)


How is a square and a triangle the same?

well one way there the same is they both have sides they both have angles and their both classiflyed as shapes


What is the semimajor axis of a circle of diameter 24 cm?

The major and minor axes of a circle are the same - either is any diameter. So a semimajor axis is half the diameter which is 12 cm.

Why can bar graphs be converted to line graphs?

They can both show the same data. You can use quantitative or categorical data with both of them.


Is this true you always have to use the same scale on both axes?

no


If two linear equations are in standard form how can you tell that the graphs are parellel?

If the slopes are the same on both graphs, they are parallel, and will never touch.


How are line bar and pie graphs the same?

They both show a set of data. Line graphs show data over time. Pie graphs show percentages in data.


How are the x-axis and y-axis the same in math?

Both or axis', they are lines, and both are in graphs, but techniquelly they arent the same thing.


How can you tell linear equations are parallel?

Equations are never parallel, but their graphs may be. -- Write both equations in "standard" form [ y = mx + b ] -- The graphs of the two equations are parallel if 'm' is the same number in both of them.


Can x and y axes be numbered differently?

Of course. If you have a function that climbs very steeply and you want to show its shape, you can number the Y axis in increments of 1000 and the X in increments of 1. This will, of course, make the curve appear 1000 times flatter visually. Also, the two axes may not necessarily even measure the same thing. On any newspaper financial page, you will find a graph with the X axis numbered to represent time and the Y to represent a stock index price.


Can you solve system of equations by graphing?

Yes you can, if the solution or solutions is/are real. -- Draw the graphs of both equations on the same coordinate space on the same piece of graph paper. -- Any point that's on both graphs, i.e. where they cross, is a solution of the system of equations. -- If both equations are linear, then there can't be more than one such point.


Does your supply and demand graph use the same numbers?

If you're graphing them on the same set of axes or you want to be able to compare them, then yes, you should use the same scale for both of them.
