Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Bar charts are the most popular type of data visualization tool because they’re simple and easy to interpret. They’re used to compare quantities within related categories, such as the number of sales across years or customers by age.

Detailed explanation-2: -A Dual Axis Line Chart is one of the best graphs for presenting growth year-over-year. The chart has a secondary y-axis to help you display insights into two varying data points. More so, it uses two axes to easily illustrate the relationships between two variables with different magnitudes and scales of measurement.

Detailed explanation-3: -Bar charts are good for comparisons, while line charts work better for trends. Scatter plot charts are good for relationships and distributions, but pie charts should be used only for simple compositions-never for comparisons or distributions.

Detailed explanation-4: -You can represent sales growth by using either a line chart or a bar chart. In a bar chart, each period is represented with an individual bar. In a line chart, each period is a dot and subsequent dots are joined with a line.
