Rocco is giving a speech on the cost of healthcare in the United States. Describe how he could use a line graph, a bar graph, or a pie graph (choose one) in this presentation.

What will be an ideal response?


Answers will vary but should show understanding that line graphs are used to show trends or changes over time by connecting line points, while bar graphs represent comparisons between quantities using vertical or horizontal bars and pie graphs illustrate frequencies or proportions. Rocco could use a line graph to show the increasing cost of health care, a bar graph to show health care costs in the United States versus other countries, and a pie graph to show the percentages of individuals in the United States who are covered by employers’ plans, Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance plans.
