Question

The runs scored by a cricket team in first 15 overs are given below:

Overs: I II III IV V VI VII VIII IX X XI XII XIII XIV XV
Runs: 2 1 4 2 6 8 10 21 5 8 3 2 6 8 12

Draw the graph representing the above data in two different ways as a graph and as a bar chart.

Answer in Brief

Solution

Here, over is an independent variable and run is a dependent variable. So, we take overs on the x-axis and runs the on y-axis.
Let us choose the following scale:
On x-axis: 1 cm = 1 over
On y-axis: 1 cm = 2 runs
Now, let us plot (I,2), (II,1), (III,4),...,(XV,12). These points are joined to get the graph representing the given information as shown in the figure below.
