उत्तर

Here, number of persons is an independent variable and time taken is a dependent variable. So, we take the number of persons on the x-axis and time taken on the y-axis.
Let us choose the following scale:
On x-axis: 2 cm = 2 persons
On y-axis: 2 cm = 2 days
Now, let us plot (2, 12), (4, 6), (6, 4), (8, 3). These points are joined to get the graph representing the given information as shown in the figure below.​

This graph shows a map of an island just off the coast of a continent. The point labelled B represents a major city on the coast. The distance between grid lines represents 1 km.

Point A represents a resort that is located 5 km East and 3 km North of Point B. The values 5 and 3 are the coordinates of Point A. The coordinates can be given as the ordered pair (5, 3), where 5 is the horizontal coordinate and 3 is the vertical coordinate.

(i) On a copy of the map, mark the point that is 3 km East and 5 km North of Point B and label it S. Is Point S in the water or on the island? Is Point S in the same place as Point A?

(ii) Mark the point that is 7 km east and 5 km north of Point B and label it C. Then mark the point that is 5 km east and 7 km north of Point B and label it D. Are Points C and D in the same place? Give the coordinates of Points C and D.

(iii) Which point is in the water, (2, 7) or (7, 2)? Mark the point which is in water on your map and label it E.

(iv) Give the coordinates of two points on the island that are exactly 2 km from Point A.

(v) Give the coordinates of the point that is halfway between Points L and P.

(vi) List three points on the island with their x-coordinates greater than 8.

(vii) List three points on the island with a y-coordinate less than 4.
