Answer

To draw the rainfall graph, we will use the rainfall data from the table provided in the initial question.

Step-by-step solution

5 steps

Rainfall data for Balimo in one week:

  • Monday: 10 mm10 \text{ mm}
  • Tuesday: 12 mm12 \text{ mm}
  • Wednesday: 15 mm15 \text{ mm}
  • Thursday: 10 mm10 \text{ mm}
  • Friday: 8 mm8 \text{ mm}
  • Saturday: 5 mm5 \text{ mm}
  • Sunday: 3 mm3 \text{ mm}
  1. Choose the type of graph.

    A bar graph is suitable for displaying daily rainfall data.

  2. Set up the horizontal axis (x-axis).

    The horizontal axis should represent the Days of the Week. Label it clearly as "Days of the Week". Mark points for Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, ensuring equal spacing between them.

  3. Set up the vertical axis (y-axis).

    The vertical axis should represent the Rainfall in mm. Label it clearly as "Rainfall (mm)".
    The lowest rainfall is 3 mm3 \text{ mm} and the highest is 15 mm15 \text{ mm}. A suitable scale would be from 0 mm0 \text{ mm} to 20 mm20 \text{ mm}, with increments of 2 mm2 \text{ mm} or 5 mm5 \text{ mm}. For example, mark 0,2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,200, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20.

  4. Plot the data.

    For each day, draw a vertical bar whose height corresponds to the recorded rainfall for that day.

    • Monday: Bar up to 10 mm10 \text{ mm}
    • Tuesday: Bar up to 12 mm12 \text{ mm}
    • Wednesday: Bar up to 15 mm15 \text{ mm}
    • Thursday: Bar up to 10 mm10 \text{ mm}
    • Friday: Bar up to 8 mm8 \text{ mm}
    • Saturday: Bar up to 5 mm5 \text{ mm}
    • Sunday: Bar up to 3 mm3 \text{ mm}
  5. Add a title.

    A suitable title for the graph would be "Rainfall in Balimo for One Week".

    The graph should look like a bar chart with:

    • X-axis: Days of the Week (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday)
    • Y-axis: Rainfall (mm) with a scale from 0 mm0 \text{ mm} to at least 15 mm15 \text{ mm} (e.g., 0,2,4,...,16 mm0, 2, 4, ..., 16 \text{ mm})
    • Bars of heights corresponding to the rainfall values for each day.
