A very simple graph gives me headache!!

[Herman_KLF]

Hi All

I want to draw a "Demand" line graph. If the price of apples is $1 per kg,
the demand would be 100kg, if the price is $2 the demand would drop to 90kg,
etc... The example values are like this:
$2 ... 100
$4 ... 90
$6 ... 85
$8 ... 74
$10 ... 60
$12 ... 50

I created 2 columns Cost and Demand. If i just click a graph button on the
insert tab and select the graph, using the data in the columns it gives me 2
sets of values.

What i need is the x-axis to be qty demanded and the y-axis, the Price/kg.

thanx
Herman

Hi,
I entered your values, gave each column a heading, hit the F11 key and
got a graph like the one you need..

Nope, I got what i get the whole time, let me explain what i get:

There are 2 sets of values displayed on the graph, the cost values as well
as the values of the demands. X
I need only demand values and the other values should be the intervals on
the axis.


This would bee the graph that I need.

Thanks for your trouble.

What you require is exactly what I get...
Any way you could post your original sheet ( leaving confidential data
out)?
(It's possible on our forum)

Put the demand in the first column and the price in the second column.
Select this range of data, and create an XY chart, not a line chart. Choose
a subtype that connects the markers with lines.
