Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → (A), (B) and (D) only
A graph turns rows of figures into a picture, so it helps to explore relationships, to present information quickly and to convince others.
(A) Quicker and easier to create a chart immediately to see the possible relationship of variables to one another, rather than paging through raw data. — True. A chart shows at a glance how variables move together, which is quicker than paging through raw data.
(B) Provide information in as little time as possible. — True. Graphs are used to provide information in as little time as possible; that is why newspapers and magazines use them.
(C) Graphs do not have the ability to take large amounts of information and make them into exhibitions that are easily used to persuade — False. It reverses the point. Graphs do have the ability to take large amounts of information and present it in a form that persuades.
(D) A graph may be either a single line graph or a multi-line graph. — True. A graph may show one series (a single-line graph) or several series (a multi-line graph), the lines told apart by shape or colour.
