Question

Hi
My doubt is that if there is a kink in the y-axis,then why isn’t there a kink in the x-axis??
For example we use a kink in the no. of products sold
but why we don’t use in the years of sales like 2003,2004,2005
Please answer my doubt asap.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We insert kink for data which is a quantity and keep on varying.

Example: The number of sales keep on varying, so we can use kink for it.

But the year in which data is recorded is a constant. It is more of a group than a varying data.

Hence, we use kink for data which keeps varying.
