Question

Identify the scale of the graph.

• A. 1 unit on x-axis = $5^{\circ }$ Celsius
• B. 1 unit on y-axis = $5^{\circ }$ Celsius
• C. None of the above
• D. (a) and (b) above.

Answer 1

The correct option is B 1 unit on y-axis = $5^{\circ }$ Celsius

As we can see in the bar graph, the x-axis represents the cities and the y-axis represents the temperature in the cities. Each unit on y-axis represents $5^{\circ }$ Celsius. Thus the scale of the graph is 1 unit on y-axis = $5^{\circ }$ Celsius.
