Graph help

[slotob]

Im required to make a graph on which type of fabric retains heat the best. I recorded the temperatures every 10 minutes for 50 minutes when doing the experiments. I currently have a results graph that includes the time and the temperature at each time. I tried to turn this into a bar graph but I'm confused as to how to fit all the fabrics into one graph. Please help.

 

 

Thanks

You could put time on the x-axis, spaced from 0 to 60 in 10 minute increments. 

You could then put temperatures on the y-axis. Increments depend on how big a result you measured. 

Then, along each time point on the x-axis, you put one bar for each fabric. You can use a different color for each fabric. 

Be sure to label your axes, clarify what units you used to measure temperature (degrees F, degrees C, etc) and put a legend so it’s easy to match the bar colors to each fabric it represents. 

It might look something like this (but you’d have 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes, etc. instead of apples oranges and bananas):
