1. Pie-chart and bar graph

2. Bar graph and Pie chart.

3. Bar graph

4. Pie-chart

Step-by-step explanation:

Bar graphs are used to present data using bars or columns that have different lengths. You use bar graphs to compare items over a period of time. They can also show frequency in data investigated. Using bar graphs you can compare things and track changes over a period of time especially when changes are large.

Pie charts are circular graphs showing relative contributions of different things to an overall total. You use angles to draw various sections/parts of the chart. Usually used when you compare parts of a whole. Pie-charts do not present changes of things over time.
