Question

The following table gives the quantity of petrol and its cost

$\begin{array}{ccccc}NoofLitresofPetrol& \text{10}& \text{15}& \text{20}& \text{25}\\ CostofPetrolinRs.& \text{500}& \text{750}& \text{1000}& \text{1250}\end{array}$

Plot a graph to show the data.

Answer 1

$\begin{array}{ccccc}NoofLitresofPetrol& \text{10}& \text{15}& \text{20}& \text{25}\\ CostofPetrolinRs.& \text{500}& \text{750}& \text{1000}& \text{1250}\end{array}$

Since, 'Cost' of petrol is a dependent variable and 'Litres' are independent variable, therefore, we will plot 'Litres' on x- axis and 'Cost' on y-axis.

Scale:

$1$ small box on x-axis is $1$ litre and

$1$ small box on y-axis is $Rs.50$
