Answer the question.Andrew creates a bar graph to show the increase in his company's sales. He wants to show the milestones - years in which sales reached 10 million, 20 million, 30 million, 40 million, and 50 million dollars respectively. The data are shown in the table below: 
In the graph, Andrew draws 5 equally spaced bars of heights 1 in, 2 in, 3 in, 4 in, and 5 in respectively. The height of each bar corresponds to the amount of sales. He labels each bar with the corresponding year (1975, 1985, 1993, 1999, 2003 respectively). Why is the graph misleading?
What will be an ideal response?
The graph is misleading because it gives the impression that sales have been rising linearly. The bars are equally spaced even though the time intervals on the horizontal axis are not uniform in size. So for example, it took 10 years for sales to increase from 10 to 20 million but only 4 years for sales to increase from 40 to 50 million.
