Graphing Paired-Variable Statistical Data

Overlaying a Function Graph on a Statistical Graph

You can overlay an existing statistical graph with any type of function graph.

Example: Input the two sets of data shown below, and plot the data on a scatter plot. Next, overlay the scatter plot with the graph of y = 2 · ln(x).

list1 = 0.5, 1.2, 2.4, 4.0, 5.2 list2 = –2.1, 0.3, 1.5, 2.0, 2.4
