Hello, I have line graph that represents the number of years of a schools existence vs the number of computers purchased each year. The first point of the graph starts at (1, 50) as opposed to (0, 50) Why does it start at 50 not zero Thanks. Iza
A line graph is usually constructed from the data on hand. In your example there was apparently no computers in year 0 or the start year. In year one there were 50 computers purchased. In this case the (0,0) point is assumed. Your graph could easily be extended to the (0,0) point and it would be equally as correct as the one you have
