Graphing Terminology

4. - The center point (0,0) where the x-axis and y-axis intersect.
5. - The standard value given to each tick mark or grid space on an axis.
6. Angle - The slice size in a pie chart, found by multiplying its fraction of the total by 360°.
7. (or Bin) - A continuous numerical range used to group raw data.
9. - Estimating a value beyond your existing data range.
10. Data - Measurable data that can take on any fractional or decimal value.
11. Variable - The outcome being measured, plotted on the y-axis.
14. Graph (Pie Chart) - A circular chart where proportional slices show parts of a whole (100%).
16. Variable - The controlled factor that causes change, plotted on the x-axis.

1. Graph - A display using separated bars to compare discrete groups.
2. - Estimating a missing value within your existing data range.
3. (Ordered Pair) - A pair of numbers (x,y) that identifies an exact location on a grid.
8. Line Graph - A chart using line segments to connect points to show trends over time.
12. Data - Distinct, countable values that cannot be broken into fractions.
13. Coordinate Plane - A flat 2D surface formed where horizontal (x) and vertical (y) number lines cross.
15. - A graph of continuous data showing frequencies within intervals using connected bars.
