Step 6: Describe what a data point represents in

one of your graphs. Be sure to be very specific in
your langauge!

These data points are showing the flucuation in

temperatures after midnight.

Step 7: Write a few sentences about the trends

that you notice in this data set. Which
representation (table/scatterplot/line graph) helps
you see these trends you describe? Your answer
should let your reader know how you understand
what you can see or what is masked by different
representations of data!

The trends that I notice when looking at this data is

around the 15 hours mark after midnight the
temperatures rise. The lowest is around 9 hours after
