use the connect line tool to create a line graph of the data

Explanation:

Step1: Plot Points for Each Month

For month 1, rainfall is 8.5 in. So, find \( x = 1 \) on the x - axis and \( y = 8.5 \) on the y - axis. Mark the point \((1, 8.5)\).
For month 2, rainfall is 9.0 in. Mark the point \((2, 9.0)\).
For month 3, rainfall is 9.0 in. Mark the point \((3, 9.0)\).
For month 4, rainfall is 7.0 in. Mark the point \((4, 7.0)\).
For month 5, rainfall is 4.0 in. Mark the point \((5, 4.0)\).
For month 6, rainfall is 3.0 in. Mark the point \((6, 3.0)\).

Step2: Connect the Points

Using the "Connect Line" tool, draw a line segment between \((1, 8.5)\) and \((2, 9.0)\), then between \((2, 9.0)\) and \((3, 9.0)\), then between \((3, 9.0)\) and \((4, 7.0)\), then between \((4, 7.0)\) and \((5, 4.0)\), and finally between \((5, 4.0)\) and \((6, 3.0)\).

Answer:

The line graph is created by plotting the points \((1, 8.5)\), \((2, 9.0)\), \((3, 9.0)\), \((4, 7.0)\), \((5, 4.0)\), \((6, 3.0)\) and connecting them in order.
