Assume that the U.S. Geological Survey provided the following data:

 
Year 1986 1987 1988 1989 1990 1991 1992 1993
Elevation 3817 3815 3810 3812 3808 3803 3798 3797
Year 1994 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000
Elevation 3795 3797 3802 3807 3811 3816 3817


Make a time series graph.

Expert Solution
Step 1

we wants to make a time series graph 

for that we plot the year against elevation which shows the year wise change in the elevation of the lake surface.

x axis is year 

y axis is elevation of the lake surface.
