It contains all the measures in your data, collected into a single field with continuous values - This is the definition for 'Measure Values'.

All others are True w.r.t. Measure Names!

The Measure Names field contains the names of all measures in your data, collected into a single field with discrete values.

To show how Internet Usage values change from year to year as a percentage, you should apply the "Percent Difference" quick table calculation to the Internet Usage field. This calculation compares each value to the previous value and computes the difference as a percentage, which is ideal for analyzing the rate of change over a sequential time period such as consecutive years.

To create a trend line, we need:

To display multiple distinct lines on the same axis based on a field, you should place the field on the Color shelf in the Marks card. This will encode each distinct value in the Region field with a different color, resulting in separate lines for each region on the same axis.

Explanation

To reach the correct answer, follow the steps below:

1) Drag Category, and sub-category to the row shelf. Drag Profit to the Column shelf

2) Click the Sort-ascending icon as shown above, to sort the profits from least to greatest as shown:

Click the 'Show mark labels icon'

As we can see, Fasteners has the least Profit in the Office Supplies Category, and hence is our correct answer!

Measure Names is a dimension. Latitude, Longitude, and Number of records are all measures.

Explanation

Whenever you add a measure to your view, an aggregation is applied to that measure by default. This default is controlled by the Aggregate Measures setting in the Analysis menu.

If you decide you want to see all of the marks in the view at the most detailed level of granularity, you can disaggregate the view. Disaggregating your data means that Tableau will display a separate mark for every data value in every row of your data source.

To disaggregate all measures in the view:

Clear the Analysis >Aggregate Measures option. If it is already selected, click Aggregate Measures once to deselect it.

When creating a histogram in Tableau, bin size refers to the range of the continuous measure counted in each bin. A histogram is a chart that displays the shape of a distribution of a continuous measure. A histogram looks like a bar chart but groups values for a continuous measure into ranges, or bins. The basic building blocks for a histogram are as follows: Mark type: Automatic; Rows shelf: Continuous measure (aggregated by Count or Count Distinct); Columns shelf: Bin (continuous or discrete)4 To create bins from a continuous measure, you need to specify the size of bins, which determines how many bins are created and how wide they are. The size of bins is equal to the difference between consecutive values along the axis that represents the bins. For example, if you have bins with values 0-10, 10-20, 20-30, etc., then the size of bins is 10. You can either enter a value for the size of bins manually or have Tableau suggest an optimal bin size based on a formula that considers the number of distinct rows and the minimum and maximum values in the data5 The other options are not valid definitions of bin size when creating a histogram in Tableau. The minimum number of axis ticks in the view is determined by Tableau’s automatic scaling and formatting of axes, which can be adjusted manually if needed. The count distinct (COUNTD) of items on either axis is an aggregation function that returns the number of unique values in a field, which can be used as a measure in a histogram but not as bin size. The maximum number of marks in the view is limited by the performance and readability of the visualization, which can be improved by filtering, sorting, or aggregating the data4

We can use scatter plots to visualize relationships between numerical variables!

In Tableau, you create a scatter plot by placing at least one measure on the Columns shelf and at least one measure on the Rows shelf (Total 2 minimum). If these shelves contain both dimensions and measures, Tableau places the measures as the innermost fields, which means that measures are always to the right of any dimensions that you have also placed on these shelves. The word "innermost" in this case refers to the table structure.

 (Matrix of Scatter Plots)

A scatter plot can use several mark types. By default, Tableau uses the shape mark type. Depending on your data, you might want to use another mark type, such as a circle or a square. For more information, see Change the Type of Mark in the View.

To create a scatter plot, follow the steps below:

Explanation

If you chose 2, then you were very close but probably didn't plot the actual Percent Difference on your view. ( One of the marks is just over the line).

• Firstly, Drop the Week ID onto the column shelf, and convert it to continuous since we need both Year and Quarter as mentioned in the question.
• 2) Next, Drop assortment to filters shelf so that we can focus on Electronics!

3) This should be your view now. Click on the Show Mark Labels icon as shown:

The final view is as follows, with 3 points below 0 ( i.e negative )
