Results by Party
A graph titled Results by Party has Political party on the x-axis, and Percent who agreed on the y-axis, from 53 to 63 in increments of 2. Democrats, 62; Republicans, 54; Independents, 54.

What makes this graph misleading?

The horizontal scale only shows three parties. It needs to show every party.
b.
The vertical scale is too broad. It needs to focus in on a narrower range.
c.
The horizontal scale exaggerates the differences between the parties.
d.
The vertical scale is too narrow. It needs to be a wider range, such as 0 to 100.

Answer: d.  The vertical scale is too narrow. It needs to be a wider range, such as 0 to 100.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical scale is indeed too narrow. It needs to have a wider range that will enable a person who is looking at the graph, better compare the results shown because the magnitude of the number will be more apparent.

A range such as 0 to 100 would be ideal for this and would present the information in such a way that when a person looks at the graph, they understand the relative difference between the percentages who agreed with the court decision.

Translate (3,2) to the left one unit. Then reflect the result over the y-axis. What are the coordinates of the final point?
OleMash [197]

Answer:

(-2, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Take point (3, 2) and first translate it left one unit.  Now the point is (2, 2)

Now reflect it over the y-axis.  Doing so keeps the y value the same, we have a vertical line of reflection, so we are only changing the distance to the y-axis, which is the x-value.  

Our x value is 2 units away from the y axis, so its reflection will be 2 units away on the other side of the axis.  

The new x value is -2, so the point is (-2, 2)
