line graphs
Connected data points
A line graph is a chart that displays data points connected by straight lines, showing how values change over a continuous variable like time.
Line graphs excel at revealing trends, patterns, and rates of change: The line graph showed a steady increase in temperature over the decade.
Multiple lines on the same graph allow comparison between different data sets.
