Hi Gregory,
Here's a start:
gcdf<-read.table(text="2020-01-05 15.973
2020-02-15 18.832
2020-03-10 17.392
2020-05-04 14.774
2020-06-21 19.248
2020-08-01 14.913
2020-08-27 15.226
2020-09-28 14.338
2020-11-09 18.777
2020-12-11 19.652",
header=TRUE,stringsAsFactors=FALSE,
col.names=c("date","gallons"))
gcdf$date<-as.Date(gcdf$date,"%Y-%m-%d")
plot(gcdf$date,gcdf$gallons,main="Gallons by date",
xlab="Date",ylab="Gallons")
