Exercise 15b: Changing plots in Prism
Go to parent GraphPad Prism statistical analyses
In exercise 7 we created a scatter plot of the untransformed galileo data set.
Change the symbols on the graph to +. |
---|
|
This generates the following plot:
Change the symbols on the graph to a red dot. |
---|
In the Show symbols section of the Appearance tab of the Format Graph window, change the shape and the color of the symbol:
Click OK. |
This generates the following plot:
Increase the size of the title. |
---|
|
This generates the following plot:
Connect the data points on the plot by black lines. |
---|
|
This generates the following plot:
Replace the full line by a dotted line. |
---|
In the Show connecting line/curve section of the Appearance tab of the Format Graph window, change the pattern of the line: [ Click OK. |
This generates the following plot:
Reset axes to X: 500 -> 1600 and Y: 200 -> 600. |
---|
You can do the same for the Y-axis in the Left Y axis tab. |
This generates the following plot:
Calculate the mean height in the galileo data set. |
---|
This generates the following result:
|
Add the mean height to the galileo plot. |
---|
The mean height is 434 so we want to include a straight line at Y=434 in the plot. To do this we must create a new XY table with
So this is what the new table should look like:
Give the table a meaningful name e.g. Mean galileo.
This opens the Add Data Sets to Graph window where you can browse and select the data set you want to add:
Click OK twice. |
This generates the following plot:
Replace Legend by mean(h). |
---|
|
This generates the following plot:
Replace the mean line by a red line without any symbols. |
---|
|
This generates the following plot:
