Analyzing Data and Making Predictions

Data Detective Work

Math lets you make sense of data and predict future trends. By collecting, organizing, and analyzing data, you can spot patterns and make good decisions.

Steps to Analyze Data

  1. Gather information.
  2. Organize it in tables or graphs.
  3. Look for trends or patterns.

Making Predictions

Use trends to forecast what might happen next, like predicting next week’s weather or sales.

Data Tips

  • Line graphs show changes over time.
  • Bar graphs compare different groups.

Examples

  • Track daily temperatures and predict tomorrow’s weather.

  • Graph classmates’ favorite snacks to see which is most popular.
