Summary
This lesson focuses on the essential skills needed to interpret tables, graphs, and figures on the ACT Science Test, highlighting the importance of understanding labels, identifying trends, and linking different data representations.
  • Understanding and interpreting data representations is crucial for success on the ACT Science Test.
  • Labels on tables and graphs are key to matching question terms and finding relevant data quickly.
  • Identifying trends and relationships within data helps in focusing on significant information for answering questions.
  • Different types of graphs, such as line and bar graphs, use the horizontal axis for the independent variable and the vertical axis for the dependent variable.
