Question

stephanie collected data about the high temperature in her city for 7 days in a row. the high temperature for the 7 days were 70, 78, 85, 73, 65, 78 and 89. she says the temperature in her city is pretty consistent. how could she redraw the graph so that the daily temperature doesn't seem quite so consistent?

Answer 1

To redraw the given set of temperatures in such a way that it doesn't seem quite consistent, all it takes is to change the scale.

If the distance betweend the days is a bit shorter, and the maximum and minimum values in the graph are near to the maximum and minimum value of the set of temperatures, the data will seem to change much rapidly.
