Graphic entitled “Number of Students on Central Plaza on a Typical Week Day” Origin unknown 1. What data are represented in this graph? Describe how you would interpret this graph. In terms of the data, what is occurring at noon? 2. What trends in the data are immediately evident from looking at the graph? Describe the various trends you see in the data. 3. Would the pattern seen in this graph be different for a Saturday or Sunday? Why?
Graphic entitled “Number of Students on Central Plaza on a Typical Week Day”
Origin unknown
1. What data are represented in this graph? Describe how you would interpret
this graph. In terms of the data, what is occurring at noon?
2. What trends in the data are immediately evident from looking at the graph?
Describe the various trends you see in the data.
3. Would the pattern seen in this graph be different for a Saturday or Sunday?
Why?
4. Give approximations of the data that are represented on this graph (each hour)
and produce a table AND a standard bar graph of these data.
5. Would a line graph be reasonable to represent these data? Why or why not?
Produce a line graph of the data.
6. Discuss the advantages of using the clock graph, the table, the bar graph, and
the line graph to represent the data.
7. Think of a setting for which you could generate a similar type of clock graph
or line graph (such as the number of people at a local shopping mall or the
number of students in the cafeteria at a given time). Try to make your setting
somewhat unique, yet something other students would be familiar with and
understand. Once you have chosen your setting, create a clock graph or a line
graph that represents what you chose. Create a title for your graph similar to
the one for the “Number of Students on Central Plaza on a Typical Week Day,”
and place the title on the back of the graph.
