This document discusses different methods of data handling and visualization including bar graphs, pictographs, and tally marks. It provides examples and explanations of key elements of bar graphs including the x-axis, y-axis, bars, and scale. Pictographs are defined as using pictures or symbols to represent and compare data. Tally marks are introduced as a method of counting frequencies according to classification with diagonal lines representing groups of five. Examples of each method are shown.
2. ? Data handling is the way in which Data can be
represented graphically to give a clear idea of what it
represents. It is easier to interpret and organize data
using pictorial representation.
? Data handling includes bar graph, pictograph and tally
marks.
3. ? It is the way of representing data visually. Bars are of
uniform width and can be drawn horizontally or
vertically with equal spacing between them. The
length of each bar represents the given number
frequency.
5. 1. Y-axis: The line on a graph that runs vertically (up-down) through
zero. It is used as a reference line so you can measure from it.
2. X-axis: The line on a graph that runs horizontally (left-right)
through zero. It is used as a reference line so you can measure
from it.
3. Bars: They can be horizontal or vertical. Bars of a bar graph are
used to show how large each value is.
4. Scale: A scale on a graph is what we use to measure the distance
between the given coordinates.

It is easy to answer
this question from a
graph.
There is only one
set of data on this
graph.
7. ? The representation of an information through pictures
is called a pictograph. Pictographs use relative sizes or
repetitions of the same icon, picture, or symbol to
show comparison. Also called pictogram, pictorial
chart, pictorial graph, or picture graph.
9. ? A method of counting frequencies, according to some
classification, in a set of data. For ease of counting,
every fifth observation is represented by a diagonal
line crossing the previous four to make a five-barred
gate. Tally charts are often used with grouped
observations
