Question 15 Marks
Find the coordinates of points P, Q, R and S in Figure.


Answer
Draw perpendiculars PA, QB, RC and SD from vertices P, Q, R and S on the x-axis.
Also ,draw perpendiculars.
PE, QF, RG and SH on the y-axis from these points.
PE = 10 units and PA = 70 units.
Therefore, the coordinates of vertex P are (10, 70).
QF = 12 units and QB = 80 units
Therefore, the coordinates of vertex Q are (12, 80).
RG = 16 units and RC = 100 units
Therefore, the coordinates of vertex R are (16, 100).
SH = 20 units and SD = 120 units
Therefore, the coordinates of vertex S are (20, 120).

Here, over is an independent variable and run is a dependent variable. So, we take overs on the x-axis and runs the on y-axis.



Here, year is an independent variable and sales is a dependent variable. So, we take year on the x-axis and sales on the y-axis.Let us choose the following scale:

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:
Here, year is an independent variable and quantity of rice grown is a dependent variable. So, we take years on the x-axis and quantity of rice grown on the y-axis.Let us choose the following scale:
Here, time is an independent variable and speed is a dependent variable. So, we take time on the x-axis and speed on the y-axis.
