- I want you to collect data and use it to make a statistical graph (pie, bar, line, or histogram). You can collect your data or you can use an already existing data set. If you elect to collect your own data, you must clearly detail how the data was collected in your post. If you used an already existing data set, you must cite your source for credit. The graph you construct CANNOT be done by hand for credit.The graph you construct MUST be your own work. If you copy an existing graph or mimic an existing one exactly, you will not receive credit.Your post must contain how the data was collected (or a citation leading us to your data set) AND a picture of the graph you create.arrow_forwardThere is a percentage of canadians who have been voting for Canadian elections every 4 yrs since 1800,george wants to compare the percentage of people who have voted in 1848 to the percentage of people who have voted in 2000.which type of graph should he use 1 bar graph 2 pie chart 3 histogram 4 line chartarrow_forwardMake graphs for each section (a,b,c,d, and e).arrow_forward
