Abby's scribepost for September 25
What we did in class today is we move on to the next section of Chapter 1, and the title is Misrepresenting Data.
Believe it or not some people may misinterpret data and draw false conclusions when graphs are misleading.
Misleading features of graph may include the following:
1. Distorting the scale
2. Distorting the information by using visuals of different sizes
Page 20: Show You Know
a) Explain how this graph could be misleading.
b) What conclusion does the graph suggest about the price of gas at the end of the day compared with the price at the beginning of the day?
c) Describe how to redraw the graph to represent the data more accurately.
