Friday 3rd July - Maths Problem Solving (Line Graphs)

Good morning year 4,

As you have been looking at line graphs over the last few days, I thought it would be a good idea to look at some problem solving questions involving line graphs.

Here are my tips for tackling this sort of question:

1. Read the title of the graph so you understand what the graph shows.
2. Look at the graph axis and make sure you understand what units of measure are being used.
3. Read the question about the graph carefully. Are you being asked to INTERPRET the graph or ADD information to it?

Here's problem 1:

Here's problem 2. 

Here is question 3. Think about the shape of the line for your answer to this one.

And here is the final problem solving question.
