• | Lists created in Lists & Spreadsheet can be accessed as a variable. |
• | Variables must be named before they can be used in Data & Statistics. |
• | Tap the Add Variable field located in the center of the x-axis or y-axis to choose a defined variable name. |
• | The default plot for one variable is a dot chart. The data points in the default caseplot reposition to represent the elements of the selected variable. |
• | The default plot for two variables is a scatter plot. The data points shift to represent the elements of both variables on a scatter plot. |
Pinch or spread either the horizontal or vertical axis to modify its scale.
-OR-
Drag either axis to shift the axis while retaining its scale.
To restore the original size and location of the plotted data, tap Tools > Window/Zoom > Zoom-Data.
When you plot a value on an existing plot, it is displayed as a vertical line in the work area. You can plot a single number or any expression that evaluates to a number. If the value is dependent on the data, the line updates to reflect changes made when you drag a point or make changes in the Lists & Spreadsheet application. The plotted value must be in the domain of the axis.
To plot a value:
1. | Tap Tools , go to Analyze, and then tap Plot Value. |
2. | Type the value you want to plot, and then tap ENTER. |
Use Plot Function to graph a function for comparison to an existing plot. To plot a function:
1. | Create or open a problem that includes variables that are plotted in a Data & Statistics work area. Ensure the work area contains both a horizontal axis and a vertical axis. |
2. | Tap Tools , go to Analyze, and then tap Plot Function. |
3. | Type the function in the entry field and tap return. |
Note: You can rename the function by typing over f1(x): with another name.
