At this level it is not very constructive to distinguish between the interpretation of graphs (Outcome 1) and drawing graphs (Outcome 2). Hence the two Outcomes have been combined into one section.

The first section (graphs using Excel) has no SAQs. But don’t worry, the next two sections have plenty! You can practise drawing graphs by hand on graph paper, or using Excel, or using any other package you may have on your PC at home or at work. All are acceptable. Your tutor may give you more guidance about this. If you don’t have access to Excel, read this section anyway.

Note that the answers to the SAQs often contain a lot more than just the bare answer. There are frequently useful hints and points to note in there, so make sure you always check the answer to every question (after your own attempt, of course) even if you know your own answer is correct.
