Intersection
The Instersection
The intersection is the point where two different lines have the exact same x and y. The boys and the girls had a very slow improvments and in around 100 years the women performance will surpass the men's.
The X Coordinate
The X coordinate numbers are the numbers on the bottom of the graph. The X in my graph is the year that the events happened.
The Y Coordinate
The Y coordinates are the numbers on the left of the graph. The Y in my graph is the time it took the gold medalist to backstoke to one end of the pool and back.
