How graphs can be misleading

[frusturated_freshman]

I'm working on my Algebra 1 homework, and we're studying stem-and-leaf plots. One of the problems says: "Name two or three ways a graph can misleading". My problem is, I looked over the text through the entire lesson, and it only gives one: "Graphs can be misleading if the vertical and horizontal scales are labeled inconsitantly". I can't find another way that graphs are misleading. Any and all help will be appreciated! Thanks!

You don't always have to rely on the book. Have fun! :wink:
