Line Graphs

A line graph is a way of showing continuous data.

Continuous data

Continuous data is data that can be any number.
- People's heights are an example of continuous data because your height can be any number.
- Shoe sizes are NOT continuous data because your shoe size CANNOT be any number (e.g. you can't have size 7,431 feet).

Line graph example

This line graph shows the rate of growth of a sunflower.

Using line graphs

You can use a line chart to find out information.

Using line graphs example

You can see that the sunflower grew to 20 cm within 31 days.
You can tell this because 20 cm is our highest point and our graph shows that it was measured over 31 days.
