Year 8 2020-2021 Diagnostic Evaluation

Objective 3 (Research and) Communication

A student wanted to get fitter and stronger, so every day for 10 days, he ran 2 kilometers and then
immediately afterwards, completed as many push-up’s as he could in 5 minutes.

The table shows how many push-up's he achieved in 5 minutes for each of the 10 days.

up’s in 5

2 38

6 60

8 58
9 64

On the graph grid on the next page, draw a LINE GRAPH to show the number of push-up’s
achieved by the student during the 10 days. Label the graph. Use a pencil only for drawing the graph
and for labelling. Scan and share the graph with me in an email. Make sure that your name is clearly
written on the graph.

As an alternative, you may draw the graph digitally, using Excel or some other programme, and send
the graph to me. Make sure that your name is clearly written on the graph.
