True or False Scatter plots are used to show the effect of time on a parameter.

false

True or False Trend charts show the relationship of two variables to each other.

false

True or False When it is used for periodic calibration the check sheet only includes that data that reflect the ideal measurement, such as the position a valve should open in the tested conditions.

frequency

trend charts

graphic representations of a direction in a set of statistical data at a particular time. Also, a computer program which allows process variables to be monitored for a set period of time

Pareto Chart

graphics that rank causes from most to least significant; they represent the 80-20 rule, which says that most undesired effects come from relatively few causes.
