Sales Over Time with Inconsistent Intervals
What are the points on the x-axis?
1972, 1973, 1975, 1976
Is this line chart misleading? Explain
Yes, this chart is misleading because it uses inconsistent time intervals on the x-axis, which can distort the perception of trends and changes in sales over time. The data points for the years 1972, 1973, 1975, and 1976 are not evenly spaced, which can create a false impression of the rate of change in sales.
