Graph.
Graph, a diagram that shows relationships between numbers. Graphs arrange numerical information into a picture from which it is often possible to see overall patterns
or trends in the information.
The graph in figure 1 illustrates a sales trend. It shows the number of glasses of lemonade sold each day for a week. To find the number of glasses sold on day 3, first
locate the number 3 on the horizontal axis and then find the point directly above it. The position of this point corresponding to the vertical axis is 10, meaning that 10
glasses were sold on day 3. On day 1, the number of glasses sold is hard to determine precisely, but is somewhere between 15 and 20. Though this graph, like most
graphs, is not as accurate as a list of numbers, it more clearly illustrates the overall trend that lemonade sells better toward the end of the week (days 6 and 7) than in
the middle of the week.
The graph in figure 2 illustrates numerical relationships. Suppose it is known that Yolanda is four years older than Xavier. Using y for Yolanda's age and x for Xavier's
age, this relationship can be written as y = x + 4. Since 5 = 1 + 4, one possible pair of values for x and y is x = 1 and y = 5, which can be written briefly as (1,5) (see
Coordinate System). The set of all the pairs (x,y) for which y = x + 4 is represented by the blue straight line plotted in figure 2.
Graphs can be used to solve equations simultaneously. Suppose that in addition to knowing that Yolanda is four years older than Xavier, it is also known that Yolanda is
three times Xavier's age. The problem, then, is to find values for x and y that make the equations y = x + 4 and y = 3x both true at the same time. In figure 2, these
two equations are plotted together; the solution of these simultaneous equations is the point at which the two graphs intersect (2,6), which shows that Xavier is two
years old and Yolanda is six years old.
Graphs can also be used to exhibit inequalities. The curve in figure 3 graphs the parabolay = x2 - 1. The shaded area, not including this curve, is the graph of the
inequality y>x2 - 1.
