Question

Use the tables below to draw linear graphs. 
(a) The number of days a hill side city received snow in different years.

Year	2003	2004	2005	2006
Days	8	10	5	12

 (b) Population (in thousands) of men and women in a village in different years.

Year	2003	2004	2005	2006	2007
Number of men	12	12.5	13	13.2	13.5
Number of women	11.3	11.9	13	13.6	12.8

Answer 1

(a) By taking the years on \(x-axis\) and the number of days on \(y-axis\) and taking scale as \(1\) \(unit\) = \(2\) \(days\) 
on \(y-axis\) and \(2\) \(unit\) = \(1\) year on \(x-axis\), the linear graph of the given information can be drawn as follows.

(b) By taking the years on \(x-axis\) and population on \(y-axis \) and scale as \(1 \) \(unit\) = \(0.5\) thousand on \(y-axis\) and \(2\) \(unit\) = \(1\) year on \(x-axis\), the linear graph of the given information can be drawn as follows.
