Bar and Pictographs
. . . 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.:)
There are 5*4*3 = 60 groups.
Make predictions
Economists often use graphs to analyze the choices and trade-offs that people make. Graphs help us see how one value relates to another value.
There are four groups of 4 that will make eight groups of 2.
All graphs show patterns. Bar charts are one way to show comparisons between groups.
Line graph
Newspapers use graphs to visually represent data and information in a concise and easy-to-understand format. Graphs allow readers to quickly grasp trends, comparisons, and patterns that may be more challenging to convey using only words. They can make complex information more accessible and engaging for readers.
Durkheim ( a nineteent century writer) tried to make comparisons with diffeent ages and occupational groups.
Linear graphs make straight lines. Non-linear graphs make thins like parabolas, hyperbolas, and ellipses.

Compare data
When graphs are used correctly, they do make relationships easier to understand. they provide a useful way to visualize relationships.
