Questions: In the presentation, the employee wanted to make the data look exceptional. Which of the following would be a way that the employee would not be able to make a graph of factual information misleading? wrong information vague statements distorting images adjusting the y-scale

The answer is adjusting the $y$-scale.

Explanation for each option:

1. Wrong information: This would definitely make a graph misleading. Presenting incorrect data can lead to false conclusions, as the graph would not accurately represent the true information.

2. Vague statements: Using vague statements can mislead the audience by not providing clear or specific information. This can cause confusion or misinterpretation of the data presented in the graph.

3. Distorting images: Altering the visual representation of a graph, such as changing the proportions or dimensions, can mislead viewers by making certain data points appear more significant or less significant than they actually are.

4. Adjusting the $y$-scale: While adjusting the $y$-scale can sometimes be used to emphasize certain data trends, it does not inherently make the graph misleading if done transparently and appropriately. Properly labeled and scaled axes are essential for accurate data representation, but simply adjusting the scale does not automatically imply deception if the data is still accurately represented.
