GRAPHING TIME! and Lab next day!

Fun comic of the day!

Ha-Ha! Hopefully that wont happen on the lab the next day...



Today, we went to the computer lab to... *drum rolls*


MAKE GRAPHS!
and interpret them...

Anywho, we made graphs using Microsoft Excel and it was FUN! We got to decorate and customize it however way we want! :) 
Why do we make graphs? Graphs are one of the key tools to present our data! It helps us visualize the relationship between the x and y values.

How do you make a graph on MS Excel, you ask?
Well here is a visual step-by-step procedure that may help!

1) On the second row of column B and C, make a table of values.

2) Click "Insert" at the top and then click "Scatter". From there, click on the first diagram.

 3) Now you will have a graph! Make a title and make sure to label your axis! Click on "Text Box" on the top to create your labels.

 4) Right click on one of the points on the graph then click on "Add Trendline". Examine the graph and determine what type of graph it is. In this case, it is "Linear". Also, click on "Display Equation on chart".

 5) You can play around with the graph by customizing it with shadows and colors. Right click on the chart or the plot (actual graph), then click on "Format". From there, play around with the designs and make your graph beautiful!

AND YOUR DONE! Wasn't that fun?!
Now to calculate the slope, just look at the equation! It's that easy :)

A REMINDER TO ALL THAT WE HAVE A LAB THE NEXT DAY! (YAY FOR LABS!)
Don't forget to do your PRE-LAB and also dress appropriately for the lab!!



Hopefully, nothing goes wrong and all will go well! ..... Hopefully.....
