Instructions

Start Excel. Download and open the workbook named:


Chapter_1-7_Wind_Chill_Start
In cell C10, use the appropriate formula to calculate the Wind Chill.
In cell D17, use the appropriate formula to calculate the Wind Chill if Temperature is equal to the value in cell C17 and Wind Speed is equal to
to cell M26.

Note: Be sure to use absolute, mixed, and relative cell references.


In cells B37:J53, insert a Line Chart to show Wind Chill as a function of Temperature 13°F. Select ranges D16:M16 and D24:M24. On the Inse
Line. Apply Style 1 on the Design tab. Add a chart title and choose the Above Chart option. Replace Chart Title with Wind Chills (˚F) for Tem
for the horizontal axis with Wind Speed (mph) and Axis Title for the vertical axis with Wind Chills (˚F).

In cells L37:T53, insert a Clustered Column Chart to show Wind Chill as a function of Wind Speed 9 mph. Select ranges C17:C26 and H17:H2
and then click Clustered Column. Apply Style 6 on the Design tab. Add a chart title and choose the Above Chart option. Replace Chart Title w
axis titles. Replace Axis Title for the horizontal axis with Temperatures (˚F) and Axis Title for the vertical axis with Wind Chills (˚F).
