What is match the technique to the data?
Show answer

What is describing a presented pattern?
Show answer
In a data-response answer, describe what the figure shows in geographical terms: state the overall pattern or trend, quantify it with figures from the data (values, ranges, rates of change), and note any anomalies that depart from the pattern. A good description is specific and uses the numbers, not just "it goes up."
