Grade 7 Graphs

A graph shows the relationship between two items of information using lines drawn on an x and y axis. An example graph shows the weekly height measurements of a corn plant over three weeks, with time on the x-axis and height on the y-axis.

INTRODUCTION TO GRAPHS

A graph is a drawing in which


the relationship between two (or
more) items of information(e.g.
time and plant growth) is shown in
a symbolic way.
To this end, two lines are drawn at
a right angle. The horizontal one is
called the x axis and the vertical one
is called the y axis. Where the x axis
and the y axis intersect is the "0"
(zero) point.
 EXAMPLE 1
Suppose it is necessary to make a
graph of the growth rate of a corn plant.
Each week the height of the plant is
measured. One week after planting the
seed, the plant measures 2 cm in height,
two weeks after planting it measures 5 cm
and 3 weeks after planting the height is10
cm.
