# 2.8: Graphic Interpretation This document describes how to interpret statistical information presented in graphs. **Understanding Statistical Information** The document explains that understanding statistical information presented by media outlets requires the ability to: * Comprehend the information presented. * Evaluate the information critically from a social, economic, and political perspective. * Formulate and communicate one's own opinions about the information. **Example Data** The document also includes an example table demonstrating yearly sales figures. | Year | Sales | |---|---| | 2020 | 6,000 | | 2021 | 7,000 | | 2022 | 8,000 | | 2023 | 9,000 | | 2024 | 10,000 | A simple graph is also presented showing sales figures over time, with years on the x-axis and sales figures on the y-axis. However, there are no visible numerical values marked on the graph itself, but points are visible. There is also a brief description of the techniques used to create the graph; however, the specific method used is not disclosed.
