All of the options (a, c, and d) are actually functionalities of spreadsheets! Let’s break down why:
a) do calculations: This is a core function of spreadsheets. They allow you to perform basic arithmetic operations (+, -, *, /) as well as complex formulas using functions for statistical analysis, financial calculations, etc.c) plot graphs: Spreadsheets let you represent data visually in the form of graphs. These graphs can be various types like line graphs, bar graphs, pie charts, etc.d) plot charts: Similar to plotting graphs, spreadsheets can also generate charts, which are another way to visually represent data. Charts often include additional elements like legends and titles, making them more informative than basic graphs.Therefore, the answer we’re looking for is the option that isn’t a capability of spreadsheets.That leaves us with:
b) create graphics: While spreadsheets can plot graphs and charts, they don’t necessarily create graphics in a broader sense. They excel at creating data visualizations specifically.
