    How can Rachel create a graph to illustrate the data over time?
    ::瑞秋如何能创建图表来说明一段时间内的数据?

    In this concept, you will learn how to create and read multiple bar graphs.
    ::在这个概念中,你会学会如何创建和阅读多个条形图。

    Creating and Reading Multiple Bar Graphs
    ::创建和阅读多条条图

    Data is a set of numerical or non-numerical information. Data can be analyzed in many different ways. In this concept you will analyze numerical data using multiple bar graphs.
    ::数据是一组数字信息或非数字信息。数据可以多种不同方式分析。在此概念中,您将使用多个条形图分析数字数据。

    One way to display data is in a multiple  bar graph . A multiple bar graph shows the relationship between different values of data. Each data value is represented by a column in the graph. In a multiple bar graph, multiple data points for each category of data are shown with the addition of columns. The categories of different kinds of data are listed along the horizontal, or x , axis. The quantity or amount of data is listed along the vertical, or y , axis. Lastly, the legend, or key, states what each column represents.
    ::显示数据的一种方式是多条条形图。多条形图显示数据不同值之间的关系。每个数据值由图表中的一列表示。在多条形图中,显示每个数据类别的多个数据点,并加列。不同类别数据的类别按水平或 x 轴排列。数据的数量或数量按垂直或 y 轴排列。最后,图例或键表示每一列代表的内容。

    Let's look at an example.
    ::让我们举个例子。

    Frank's Farm Stand kept track of the number of pounds of vegetables sold over a three-day period. The results are listed on the table below. Create a multiple bar graph to display the data. Then, list three conclusions that can be made about the data.
    ::Frank's Farm Stand 记录了三天期间蔬菜销售的磅数。 结果列在下面的表格中。 创建一个多个条形图以显示数据。 然后, 列出关于数据的三个结论 。

    Frank's Vegetable Sales
    Type of Vegetable: Pounds Sold: Day One Pounds Sold: Day Two Pounds Sold: Day Three
    Squash 32 lbs. 36 lbs. 36 lbs.
    Zucchini 40 lbs. 33 lbs. 37 lbs.
    Corn 56 lbs. 65 lbs. 67 lbs.
    Carrots 28 lbs. 25 lbs. 23 lbs.
    Romaine Lettuce 27 lbs. 31 lbs. 34 lbs.
    Tomatoes 44 lbs. 54 lbs. 58 lbs.

    First, create the multiple bar graph. To do this, draw the horizontal ( x ) and vertical ( y ) axes. 
    ::首先,创建多条形图。要做到这一点,请绘制水平(x)和垂直是的轴。

    Next, label the vertical axis. The vertical axis lists the quantity or amount of the data. In this case, the category will be "Pounds Sold."
    ::下一步标签垂直轴。 垂直轴列出数据的数量或数量。 在此情况下, 类别为“ 售出 ” 。

    Next, title the graph. The title of the graph should be short and clear. It should explain what data is presented in the graph. In this case, the title will be “Amount of Vegetables Sold at Frank's Farm Stand.”
    ::下一个标题是图表。 图表的标题应该简短清晰。 它应该解释图表中显示的数据。 在这种情况下, 标题将是“ Frank's Farm Stand出售的蔬菜数量 ” 。

    Then, determine the units on the vertical axis. To do this, start by reviewing the smallest and largest values in the table. The smallest value is 23 and the largest is 65. Based on these values label the vertical axis from 0-70. Since the values are whole numbers and are relatively spread out, a unit of 10 can be used. Therefore, the vertical axis will start at 0 and go to 70 by increments of 10.
    ::然后确定垂直轴上的单位。 为此, 首先从审查表中最小和最大的值开始。 最小值为23, 最大值为65。 根据这些值标出 0- 70 的垂直轴。 由于这些值是整数, 并且相对分散, 因此可以使用一个 10 的单位。 因此, 垂直轴将从 0 开始, 以 10 递增为 70 。

    Next, draw the vertical columns. To do this, write each type of vegetable along the horizontal axis, leaving space between each one. Each type of vegetable will have three columns, one for each day. These should be drawn in different colors. To start, draw the amount of squash sold on day one. To do this draw a column vertically until it reaches the quantity 32. Then draw the amount of squash sold on day two. To do this draw the column vertically until it reaches 36. Complete the columns for squash by drawing the amount for day three, 36, in a vertical column. Continue this pattern for the other vegetables. 
    ::接下来, 绘制垂直列。 要做到这一点, 请沿着水平轴写下每类蔬菜, 并留下每类蔬菜之间的间距。 每类蔬菜将拥有三列, 每天一列。 这些将用不同的颜色绘制 。 要开始, 请绘制第一天出售的壁球数量 。 要绘制一列, 直至达到数量 。 然后绘制第二天出售的壁球数量 。 要绘制一列, 请垂直绘制, 直至达到36 。 在垂直列中绘制第三、 36 日的金额, 完成壁球列 。 继续为其他蔬菜绘制此图案 。

    Next, create the legend, or key. Each column for each category represents a different day. The legend must represent this by denoting which color is for day one, day two, and day three.   
    ::接下来,创建传说, 或键。 每一类的每列代表不同的一天。 传说必须标明第一天、 第二天和第三天的颜色, 来代表这个颜色 。

    Finally, state three conclusions from the graph. To do this, analyze the data presented in the table by comparing the heights of the bars. 
    ::最后,请从图表中列出三个结论。为此,通过比较栏杆的高度,分析表格中的数据。

    The first answer is the graph should look like the one below. The second answer is three conclusions that can be made from the graph are: corn was the vegetable that sold the greatest amount each day; the amount of carrots decreased each day from days one to three; and squash, corn, romaine lettuce, and tomatoes saw an increase in amounts sold across each day.
    ::第一个答案是图表应该看起来像下面的图。第二个答案是可以从图中得出的三个结论:玉米是每天销售量最大的蔬菜;胡萝卜数量从一天减少到三天;南瓜、玉米、萝卜生菜和番茄每天销售量增加。

    ::例1

    Earlier, you were given a problem about Rachel and her graph.
    ::早些时候,你得到一个问题 关于瑞秋和她的图表。

    Rachel wants to create a graph that displays the population growth (in millions) in the table below. 
    ::Rachel想在下表中建立一个图表,显示人口增长(以百万计)情况。

    Populations Over Time (millions)
    Country 1980 1990 2000
    France 55 56 65
    United Kingdom 50 53 63
    Mexico 65 78 80
    Nigeria 60 82 85
    Pakistan 57 65 74

    First, Rachel will create a multiple bar graph because there are multiple years of data for each country. To do this, she will draw the horizontal and vertical axes.
    ::首先, Rachel 将创建一个多个条形图, 因为每个国家的数据都存在多年。 为此, 她将绘制水平轴和垂直轴 。

    Next, she will label the horizontal axis. The horizontal axis lists the different categories of data. In this case, the category will be "Country."
    ::接下来, 她将标记水平轴。 水平轴将列出不同的数据类别。 在此情况下, 分类将是“ 国家 ” 。

    Next, she will label the vertical axis. The vertical axis lists the quantity or amount of the data. In this case, the category will be "Population (in millions)."
    ::接下来, 她将标出垂直轴。 垂直轴列出数据的数量或数量。 在此情况下, 分类为“ 人口( 以百万计) ” 。

    Next, she will title the graph. The title of the graph should be short and clear. It should explain what data is presented in the graph. In this case, the title will be “Population.”
    ::接下来, 她将给图表标题命名。 图表标题应该简短明了。 它应该解释图表中显示的数据。 在这种情况下, 标题将是“ 人口 ” 。

    Then, she will determine the units on the vertical axis. To do this, start by reviewing the smallest and largest values in the table. The smallest value is 50 and the largest is 85. Based on these values label the vertical axis from 0-90. Since the values are whole numbers and relatively spread out, a unit of 10 can be used. Therefore, the vertical axis will start at 0 and go to 90 by increments of 10. (Remember that the values are in millions.)
    ::然后,她将确定垂直轴上的单位。 为此, 首先从审查表中最小和最大的值开始。 最小值为50, 最大值为85。 根据这些值标出 0- 90 的垂直轴。 由于这些值是整数, 并且相对分散, 因此可以使用一个10 的单位。 因此, 垂直轴将从 0 开始, 递增值为 10 , 到 90 。 (记住这些值是 百万 。 )

    Next, draw the vertical columns. To do this, write each country along the horizontal axis, leaving space between each one. Each country will have three columns, one for each year. These should be drawn in different colors. To start, draw the population for France in 1980. To do this draw a column vertically until it reaches the quantity 55. Then draw the population for 1990 and 2000. To do this draw the column vertically until it reaches 56 and 65 respectively. Continue this pattern for the remaining countries. 
    ::接下来, 绘制垂直列。 为此, 请沿着横向轴写出每个国家, 每一条之间留下空间。 每个国家将拥有三列, 每年一列。 这些列应该以不同颜色绘制 。 首先, 在1980 年绘制法国的人口。 要绘制一列, 直至达到数量 。 然后绘制1990 和 2000 年的人口 。 要绘制一列, 直划到分别达到 56 和 65 个 。 继续为其余国家绘制此图案 。

    Next, create the legend, or key. Each column for each country represents a different year. The legend must represent this by denoting which color is for 1980, 1990, and 2000.
    ::接下来,创建传说,或键。每个国家的每列代表不同的年份。传说必须用标明1980、1990和2000年的颜色来表示。

    The answer is the graph should look like the one below.

    ::接下来的标题是图表。图表的标题应该简短明了。它应该解释图表中的数据。在这种情况下,标题将是“世卫组织2000年和2030年糖尿病估计病例 ” 。

    Then, determine the units on the vertical axis. To do this, start by reviewing the smallest and largest values in the table. The smallest value is 300 and the largest is 5000. Based on these values label the vertical axis from 0-5000. Since the values are whole numbers and relatively spread out, a unit of 500 can be used. Therefore, the vertical axis will start at 0 and go to 5000 by increments of 500.
    ::然后确定垂直轴上的单位。 为此, 首先从审查表中最小和最大的值开始。 最小值为300, 最大值为5000。 基于这些值, 0-5000 将垂直轴标为 0-5000 。 由于这些值是整数, 并且相对分散, 因此可以使用500 的单位。 因此, 垂直轴将从 0 开始, 以500 的递增值向5000 。

    Next, draw the vertical columns. To do this, write each country along the horizontal axis, leaving space between each one. Each country will have two columns, one for each year. These should be drawn in different colors. To start, draw the number of cases for Antigua and Barbuda for 2000. To do this draw a column vertically until it reaches the quantity 3000. Then draw the number of cases for 2030. To do this draw the column vertically until it reaches 5000. Continue this pattern for the remaining countries.
