Your secretary has compiled different numbers which summarize your areas activities for the year. You must analyze the data and report your findings. Enter the spreadsheet data below and then prepare graphs that will help you see trends or patterns. Create at least three different graph types as part of your analysis. That means a bar, a pie and a line graph, for example. Your graphs must be PRESENTATION QUALITY. Presentation quality means that the graph is properly labeled. Titles indicate the intent/purpose for the graph. X-axis and y-axis labels and legends communicate the important elements of the graph.
