Color Saturation

Post by Musiella »

Hello,
I have a question about my project (linked below).
I've already performed the experiment and filled out the table, but I am wondering how I could graph the data.
Thanks.

Musiella,

You can use your photo editing program to get the actual color values at the same spot on each picture, usually using an eye-dropper tool. You could then graph saturation as the independent variable(x axis) and the red, green, and blue color values on separate curves as the dependent variable (y axis). You could make a separate chart for each specific spot in your image that you are sampling. Does that make sense? What photo editing program are you using?
