Write the linear equation such that each point on its graph has an ordinate 3 times its abscissa.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let the abscissa of the point be x,
According to the question, Ordinate `(y)=3xx " Abscissa" implies y=3x`
When x=1, then `y=3xx1=3` and when x=2, then `y=3xx2=6`

Here, we find two points A (1, 3) and B (2, 6). So, draw the graph by plotting the points and joining the line AB.

Hence, y=3x is the required equation such that each point on its graph has an ordinate 3 times its abscissa.
