Giuseppe's Scribepost Question 8 for Sept 30

8.The graph shows the progress of friends who are playing a video game.

a) Explain how this graph could be misleading.

This graph could be misleading because it has a broken Y axis and the bars don't have the same width.

b) What conclusion does the graph suggest about Scott's progress compared with Bryce's progress?

The graph says that Scott's quest progress appears to to be twice as much as Bryce's.

c) Describe how to redraw the graph to represent the data more accurately.

Fix the break (start with 0) and make the bars widths equal.
