Exercise 13.2
1. Draw the graphs for the following tables of values, with suitable scales on the axes:
(a) Cost of apples
Ans: Take the number of apples on the x-axis and cost on the y-axis. Take scale for x-axis as \[{\text{1 unit}} = 1{\text{ apple}}\] and for y-axis as \[{\text{1 unit}} = 5{\text{ rupees}}\].
Now plot the points \[{\text{(1,5),(2,10),(3,15),(4,20)}}\]and \[{\text{(5,25)}}\]to get the number of apples-cost linear graph:
(b) Distance travelled by a car
Ans: Take time on x-axis and distance travelled on y-axis. Take scale for x-axis as \[{\text{1 unit}} = 1{\text{ hour}}\]and for y-axis as\[{\text{1 unit}} = 40{\text{ km}}\].
Now plot the points \[{\text{(6,40),(7,80),(8,120)}}\]and \[{\text{(9,160)}}\]to get the time-distance linear graph:
(i) How much distance did the car cover during the period 7.30 a.m. to 8 a.m.?
Ans:
\[ \text{Distance travelled by 7:30 a.m.} = 100 \text{ km} \]
\[{\text{Distance travelled by 8 a}}{\text{.m}}{\text{. }} = 120{\text{ km}}\]
\[{\text{Distance travelled by the car during the period 7:30 a}}{\text{.m}}{\text{. to 8 a}}{\text{.m}}{\text{.}} = {\text{Distance travelled till 8 a}}{\text{.m}}{\text{.}} - {\text{Distance travelled till 7:30 a}}{\text{.m}}{\text{.}}\]
\[{\text{Distance travelled by the car during the period 7:30 a}}{\text{.m}}{\text{. to 8 a}}{\text{.m}}{\text{.}} = 120{\text{ km}} - 100{\text{ km}}\]
\[{\text{Distance travelled by the car during the period 7:30 a}}{\text{.m}}{\text{. to 8 a}}{\text{.m}}{\text{.}} = 20{\text{ km}}\]
Thus, the car covers 20 km during the period 7:30 a.m. to 8 a.m.
(ii) What was the time when the car had covered a distance of 100 km since its start?
Ans: At 7:30 a.m. , the car had covered a distance of 100 km since it’s start.
(c) Interest on deposits for a year:
Ans: Take deposit on x-axis and simple interest on y-axis. Take scale for x-axis as \[{\text{1 unit}} = 1000{\text{ Rs}}\]and for y-axis as\[{\text{1 unit}} = 80{\text{ Rs}}\].
Now plot the points \[{\text{(1000,80),(2000,160),(3000,240),(4000,320)}}\]and \[{\text{(5000,400)}}\]to get the time-distance linear graph:
(i) Does the graph pass through the origin?
Ans: From the graph, one can observe that the graph passes through the origin.
(ii) Use the graph to find the interest on Rs 2500 for a year.
Ans: Rs2500 lies in between Rs 2000 and Rs 3000, therefore interest on Rs 2500 lies right in the middle of Rs 160 and Rs 240, i.e., Rs 200.
Thus, interest on Rs 2500 for a year is 200.
(iii) To get an interest of Rs 280 per year, how much money should be deposited?
Ans: Rs 280 lies right in the middle of Rs 240 and Rs 320, therefore deposit with respect to it lies right in the middle of Rs 3000 and Rs 4000, i.e., Rs 3500.
Thus, to get an interest of Rs 280 per year, Rs 3500 must be deposited.
2. Draw a graph for the following:
(i)
Ans: Take sides of a square(in cm) on x-axis and perimeter(in cm) on y-axis. Take scale for x-axis as \[{\text{1 unit}} = 1{\text{ cm}}\]and for y-axis as\[{\text{1 unit}} = 4{\text{ cm}}\].
Now plot the points \[{\text{(2,8),(3,12),(3}}{\text{.5,14),(5,20)}}\]and \[{\text{(6,24)}}\]to get the side-perimeter linear graph of a square:
Is it a linear graph?
Ans: The line graph is a straight line, therefore it is a linear graph.
(ii)
Ans: Take sides of a square(in cm) on x-axis and area(in \[c{m^2}\]) on y-axis. Take scale for x-axis as \[1{\text{ unit}} = 1{\text{ cm}}\]and for y-axis as\[1{\text{ unit}} = 4{\text{ c}}{{\text{m}}^2}\].
Now plot the points \[{\text{(2,4),(3,9),(4,16),(5,25)}}\]and \[{\text{(6,36)}}\]to get the side-area linear graph of a square:
Is it a linear graph?
Ans: The line graph is not a straight line, therefore it is not a linear graph.
