Line chart with two value axes

A line chart with two value axes compares two measures across one dimension (which is usually a time interval). Two value axes are used along with one category axis. The measures use different scales or units of measurement.

When to use

Use the line chart with two value axes to show the relationship between two different measures. For example, you can show the trends for the gross sales and for the average price of products to see if they are interconnected.
