The document discusses four different types of graphs: a bar graph showing popular iTunes downloads, a line graph tracking X-Games attendance over time, a pie chart displaying the percentage of time songs spent at number one, and a scatter plot comparing estimated comic sales to issues. The graphs were chosen to illustrate differences in downloads, attendance trends over time, songs' time at number one as a percentage, and an estimated sales comparison.
