Excel Chart - Adjust Horizontal Range

Hello,

Recently I tried copying and pasting an Excel chart - then manually moving (dragging) the series data to the appropriate spot in the spreadsheet. I did this to save a little time with formatting the chart. However, the horizontal axis range does not match the data. I have taken a screen capture and have annotated the screen capture to make more clear what I describe. In the screen capture the horizontal axis should start at 3.8 and continue to 4.8.

How could this be fixed?

    Double-click on any of the x-axis labels.

    This should activate the Format Axis task pane,

    Under Axis Options, you can specify the minimum and maximum values for the axis:
