Graphing in Microsoft excel- how can I put in different x and y values?

Yes, I faced exactly the same problem a few days back. Instead of using the normal chart, use a scatterplot instead. Cheers!

Use a graph paper. Vector normally given in the form of (i,j). Right now, assume your graph x-axis is your value of 'i' and y-axis is your value of 'j' plot them in and you will get it.\n\nRemember to size your scale as you do it in a normal mathematical way so that your whole vector line will be on 1 piece of graph paper.

choose 5 numbers for x lets say 4,9,16,25,and 36\nfill them in for x\ny=4,y=9....\ny=2sqrt(4), y=2sqrt(9)....\nyour plots would be x and the answer for y

If you are talking about z scores for one particular variable, then you should use a histogram.  Excel does not do histograms, so you should probably use MINITAB or some other statistics program.\n\nThe previous answer only applies if there are two variables involved.

There are a lot of software libraries that do that:\n\nhttp://tinyurl.com/k9zah\n\nincluding some for Excel:\n\nhttp://tinyurl.com/hrda7

if your equation is y=x^2, then the graph that you draw is going to be a parabola. You can see this by having a table first. The table should consist of 2 values...x and y. So you say when \nx=-3, y=9,\nx=-2, y=4,\nx=-1, y=1\nx=0,  y=0\nx=1,  y=1\nx=2,  y=4\nx=3,  y=9\nso now if you have a square line paper, just plot it and you will see that it will give you a parabola. Another thing is that when you draw it, first just plot the points and then when you connect the point connect them using curves and not a line,...that's why u get a u shaped graph and not just a combo of lines.

Here is a tutorial...you can change any of the parameters that you mentioned and look at the graph as it is made and changed...really cool if you ask me.\nhttp://www.analyzemath.com/logfunction/logfunction.html

It depends on the graph. If the values of each notch differ by x, then the interval is x.\n\nJust look at two numbers on adjacent notches, and subtract.

Under INSERT\nChooose OBJECT\nChoose "Microsoft Equation"\n"Microsoft Equation" lets you draw all sorts of math things.

Insert --> Chart --> Pie\n\nHit next\n\nDrag your mouse across the data boxes in excel to specify how large it should be, then click on the Series tab, remove all those that are in that list box, click add, set Name equal to what the Pie Chart's name is, then enter all your values in between the ={}, with commas separating your entries. The 3rd step should be self-explanatory with titles and stuff, and from there you're set.

Most quantitative data is best displayed with scatterplots - especially if you're just looking at one predictor and one response.  If you want to get fancy, you can throw a regression line in there.  Most graphing calculators can do this for you nowadays, and Excel has some user-friendly statistical functions already built into it.  If you have quantitative data for several different groups (for example, the average salaries for several different classes of workers), you may find side-by-side boxplots more suited to your needs.  Under NO circumstances should you ever use a pie chart!  They are the worst graphical representations of data, since the human eye has a very difficult time distinguishing differences in area - especially if they are very small differences.

Well, if you're using Microsoft Office, Excel provides many chart and graphic options.\nStatistical software also provide those functions, but they're really expensive.\nHere's a link for some software. Some are free, and others are shareware or have free demos that might serve you:\nhttp://dmoz.org/Science/Math/Software/Graphing/

You first make a chart with all your data that you want on your graph, then you highlight all the portions of the chart that you want on your graph. While this is highlighted, go to Insert, and graphs. Then this thing will pop up and you can select all the specifications you want on your graph.

create the chart and then right click on one of the bars...\n\nselect "format data series"\n\nclick on "Options" and make the gap width a larger number\n\ntada

Yes, click on window and put in the range that you want x and y to be.\nYou will have to push the green button to access the window function.\nNote: The domain applies to c and the range applies to y.

This all right from Excel's Help - pretty clever, huh?\n\nCreate a histogram   \nYou can analyze your data and display it in a histogram with the Histogram tool of the Analysis ToolPak. This data analysis add-in is available in Excel, but may not be automatically loaded. \n\nNote  If you don't see Data Analysis on the Tools menu, you will need to load the add-in. For more information, see Load or unload add-in programs.\n\n\nEnter the data you want to use as input for the Histogram tool in one column. If you want, you can add a label in the first cell of this column.\nNote  You must enter quantitative numeric data (such as item amounts or test scores) in each cell of the input column— the Histogram tool doesn't work with qualitative numeric data (such as identification numbers).\n\nIn another column, enter the bin numbers you want to use for the analysis. The bin numbers need to be entered in ascending order. To quickly generate a set of evenly distributed bin numbers, you can use the Fill Series option. \n-MM
