asked • 03/14/23The figure below displays the SAT scores of three students, but each chart looks different.
The two charts have the same data, but the difference seems larger for the graph on the left. Why?

Math, microeconomics or criminal justice
the vertical axis uses larger units on the right graph
it's similar to measuring height in inches or feet
a person 6 feet tall is taller than a person 5 1/2 feet
by 1/2 a foot
but in inches, the taller person is 6 inches taller
6 is larger than 1/2,
use yards
and the difference is a mere 1/6 yard difference
2 yds and 1 5/6 yds

Is one for the verbal, and one for the math? If so, just use both graphs to account for the students math and verbal scores. Also, the one on the right goes much higher than the one on the left. They need more information.03/14/23
