Draw a time series graph in which you indicate both minimum and maximum temperatures over the years
Solution: Given data is as follows;
Years | 2009 | 2013 | 2017 | 2010 | 2014 | 2018 | 2011 | 2015 | 2019 | 2012 | 2016 | 2020 |
Max Temp | 19 | 16 | 20 | 10 | 18 | 17 | 18 | 20 | 23 | 15 | 17 | 12 |
Min Temp | 18 | 4 | 7 | -2 | 4 | 8 | 8 | 4 | 13 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
after sorting by year from 2009 till 2020 we will get,
Years | 2009 | 2010 | 2011 | 2012 | 2013 | 2014 | 2015 | 2016 | 2017 | 2018 | 2019 | 2020 |
Max Temp | 19 | 10 | 18 | 15 | 16 | 18 | 20 | 17 | 20 | 17 | 23 | 12 |
Min Temp | 18 | -2 | 8 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 5 | 7 | 8 | 13 | 6 |
And hence the required plot is given by,
Best Luck !!
