You created a section called Final Grade Distribution that contains calculations to identify the number of students who earned an A, B, C, D, or F. Dr. Croghan wants you to create a chart that shows the percentage of students who earn each letter grade. Therefore, you decide to create and format a pie chart. You will also create a bar chart to show a sample of the students test scores. Furthermore, Dr. Croghan wants to see if a correlation exists between attendance and students final grades; therefore, you will create a scatter chart depicting each students percentage of attendance with his or her respective final grade average. Start Excel. Download and open the file named . Grader has automatically added your last name to the beginning of the filename. A pie chart is an effective way to visually illustrate the percentage of the class that earned A, B, C, D, and F grades.

Select the category axis and display the categories in reverse order in the Format Axis task pane so that is listed at the top and is listed at the bottom of the bar chart. Add Alt Text: (including the period). You want to create a scatter chart to see if the combination of attendance and final averages are related. Display the Grades worksheet. Select the range E5:F31 and create a scatter chart. Cut the chart and paste it in cell A42. Set a height of and a width of . Add Alt Text: (including the period). Titles will help people understand what is being plotted in the horizontal and vertical axes, as well as the overall chart purpose. Make sure the scatter chart is selected. Type as the chart title, type as the primary horizontal axis title, and type as the primary vertical axis title. To distinguish the points better, you can start the plotting at 40 rather than 0. Make sure the scatter chart is selected. Apply these settings to the vertical axis of the scatter chart: minimum bound, maximum bound, major units, and a number format with zero decimal places. Make sure the scatter chart is selected. Apply these settings to the horizontal axis: minimum bound, maximum bound, automatic units. Adding a fill to the plot area will add a touch of color to the chart. Make sure the scatter chart is selected. Add the Parchment texture fill to the plot area. You want to insert a trendline to determine trends. Make sure the scatter chart is selected and insert a linear trendline. You want to add sparklines to detect trends for each student. Select the range B6:D31 on the Grades sheet, create a column Sparkline, and type in the Location Range box. Display the Low Point. Set the Vertical Axis Minimum and Maximum Values to be the same for all Sparklines. To make the Sparklines more effective and easier to read, you will increase the row height. Change the row height to 22 for rows 6 through 31. Insert a footer with on the left, the sheet name code in the center, and the file name code on the right on all the sheets.
